Who owns St
onecutters? Two hardworking ladies, Margaret Butler (Margi) & Lesley Rush who will ensure you will have a memorable stay at Stonecutters.
Why Stonecutters? When we bought the property in 1997 the farm was known as "Cocky Bundu"-the name of a fly-fishing fly. We decided to rename the farm Stonecutters as many of the buildings in the area were built using this natural resource, so a name incorporating the word ‘stone’ seemed appropriate and no, we don’t cut diamonds or any other stone for that matter on the property!
How big is the property? 63 hectares, with landscapes of mountains, floodplain, wetland and river.
Is the water safe to drink? Yes, it’s pumped directly from a borehole. The water is tested on a regular basis and we have been drinking the water for many years and still have not rusted!
What about Malaria? Highly unlikely at this altitude- but if there are Mosquitoes are flying around in summer- and in the evening just use a repellent cream.
Are pets allowed? No (even though we are animal lovers) only two cats, Muffin & Rocket are allowed. They work as the resident rodent exterminators!
