A stay in the Boutique Apartments With Crooks Goods

A recent stay in the Boutique Apartments at The Old Mushroom Farm got us thinking about analogue living. Embodied sensory experiences with deep connections to place like how arriving home is the smell of wood fire smoke in the cold dry air.

Meet the kitchen that makes ordinary chores feel like ritual. While chopping vegetables, I found myself admiring kitchen scraps in the compost bin, framed by the metallic shine of Crooks Goods kitchen countertops.

Outside the apartment, a Crooks Goods stainless steel braai brings a playful retro-futuristic edge to the lush garden, meanwhile, inside, the Crooks fireplace kept the double-volume living room cozy long into the evening.

There's a reason these wood-stoves have become such a signature feature in the BnB accommodation at the farm.

In the bedrooms, encaustic tiles frame vintage sinks with an old-world 'luxury' that feels both playful and composed. The colourful patterned floors in the en-suites are refreshingly whimsical.

Beyond the apartments, The Old Mushroom Farm makes an ideal base for exploring the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands through winter. Spend leisurely mornings exploring the farm's restaurants, shops and artisan studios before heading out to explore the Midlands Meander, returning in time to catch a show at Playhouse 5.
