Homemade bread, farm-style meals, grass-fed Karoo choice meat, milk, yoghurt, cream cheese and eggs, when available, can be purchased on the farm. The farm is approximately an hour away from the nearest grocery shop, so guests are advised to shop before they arrive. Snow is not uncommon in winter and summer floods create dramatic patterns in the landscape. The spring is celebrated with beautiful veld flowers and the fruit trees are at their best when in blossom. Hot summer days are enjoyed in the river sheltered by the poplar grove, and the autumn months are dramatic, as the forest turns from green to red, gold and orange.

Please be aware that the gravel roads can be hard to navigate in cars that are low off the ground.

Please also inquire about our solo, couples and group retreats. Individuals travelling out of season can ask about reduced rates.
