It's conveniently located near Parys, Sasolburg, and Vanderbijlpark. Constructed from 6 shipping containers and cladded with insulated decorative cement panels, this unique house offers 80m of river frontage with lush lawns leading to the water. Guests can enjoy fishing, canoeing, tubing, swimming, or simply relaxing by the water.

Exclusive use of the house is included when you book "The Container House," making it ideal for functions, bachelor parties, family gatherings, school groups, and conferences, accommodating up to 40 people. The house features 5 large bedrooms sharing 2 bathrooms inside, along with 3 additional bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. The bedrooms offer various bed configurations to suit your needs. Bathrooms include bath and shower facilities, toilets, and washbasins. An external building houses 3 showers and 3 toilets.

The spacious kitchen is equipped with 3 fridges, an ice maker, an urn, kettle, toaster, pots and pans, potjie pots, cutlery, and crockery. The extensive entertainment area includes plastic tables and chairs for up to 40 people, a 5-seater lounge suite, and a fireplace. Outside, a large covered patio features outdoor seating and a built-in braai, complemented by 3 additional braai drums and a flat braai. The pet-friendly property allows you to bring your furry companions to enjoy the outdoors, with the added luxury of a large heated Jacuzzi accommodating 14 people.

The river in front is shallow, making it unsuitable for motorboats but safe for swimming. Guests can use canoes, life jackets, oars, and tubes provided for river activities. Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the catch-and-release policy. The Container House also offers catering options, including a spit braai upon request.

HolidayDog Suitcase Icon PET POLICY

Pets are welcome at The Container House with no strict limit per booking, given the ample space and lack of interaction with other dogs. Dogs and humans can enjoy swimming in the shallow, tranquil river, which is approximately 200m wide and safe for wading. The expansive farm allows for enjoyable walks with your pets, while cyclists can explore the area with over 20km of cycling trails. It's recommended to treat your pets for ticks before arrival, as the nearby farms have cattle, and ticks are common in the surrounding long grass.
