Activities

You are welcome to experience the daily farm activities like sheep and dairy tending. Sometimes if you are lucky and here at the right time of the year you will also be able to feed the “hanslammers” or experience shearing of sheep. You are welcome to join us in the milking parlour which takes place twice a day.

Kick off your shoes and relax. There is plenty of space on the farm to go for an early morning stroll before sunrise or late afternoon or even a jog on the main gravel road which can differ in distance to your own choice. Bicycles are also welcome; guests can ride on their bicycles on the farm or on the main gravel road or even the 20 km to Lady Grey and back.

A swimming pool is situated about 120m away from this house in the garden of the main house where the owner lives. Guests may use this swimming pool on arrangement and availability only. No children are allowed without adult supervision and guests may use only on own responsibility. There are a few dams on the farm where you can go fishing. Bring your own fishing gear. Bring your own canoe or paddle ski to use on one of the dams.
