Hey guys, this is the first episode from what we are calling our MusicBnB series. Jesse’s cousin, Gino, needed someone to help him move a few things to his apartment in Grahamstown and we had been itching to get away for while. We are definitely not used to staying in one place for as long as we have. So we took the opportunity and Gino gladly sponsored us the petrol for the trip. Now, traveling to Grahamstown is awesome but we wanted to make the getaway last a little bit longer so we thought we’d stay a few nights in the area. The trip was a little bit late notice so we couldn’t find anything in Grahamstown itself. Luckily for us, there are plenty of beautiful towns in the area so it didn’t take us too long to find the Nature’s Cottage in Boesmans Rivier, Kenton-On-Sea.

We went away for a few days and did some songwriting. We were feeling inspired, so we decided to record this live cover which shows off a bit of the beautiful accommodation we were staying in. We hope you enjoy our cover of the original harmony legends, the Civil Wars. They are one of our absolute favourites!

The cottage is the perfect mix of being close to necessities and seclusion. Restaurants, the beach, and the local supermarket are all within 10 minutes drive of the cottage, which is in a secure gated area.

There is a double bed, tv, a small kitchenette and a little lounging area, along with the most beautiful view of the river right from the front door, and out from the patio area. It also has a small private braai (barbecue) area.

The cottage was the perfect get away for a few days to recharge and spend some alone time as a couple. It allowed us the space and privacy we needed for songwriting.

It had all the basics that you would need for a few days. Impala, rooi hartebees, bush buck and nyala freely roam the property along with 200 species of birds. We bumped into a pair of nyala, which was a real treat.

If you are ever in the area we would recommend checking it out.

The main reason for our visit was to write some music. We had a few melodies running around in our heads for weeks when we decided we need to get out to a place where we were able to focus on songwriting without any distractions. We recorded another video of a song we wrote called “Get Out” we hope you enjoy it.
