The du Toit family has been farmers for six generations on the same farm Vlakkerug. We would love to share our heritage with you. Wooden floors, thick clay walls and wooden shutters lend warmth and character. Add to that the hospitality of Lize and Stephanus (owners) and their lovely staff who have lived on the farm for generations. There is much laughter in this house, rich in stories shared around the kitchen table. This is authentic life of a boer family in modern-day South-Africa. We farm with wheat and mutton merino, have a veggie garden, fruit orchard, and free range chickens. By prior arrangement and 2 days' notice, Lize would be happy to serve traditional dinners (extra fees apply). Also, contact Lize if you have small children that may need to sleep in the room with you.

Due to our sons coming home on weekends, we are only available to host guests from Monday night through Friday morning. This is a working farm, and though we as the hosts love visiting with guests, we have a farm to tend to and have limited times during the day to visit. Guests are welcome to explore the farm and use the home on their own. There are farm vehicles in use and families should keep an eye on their children. We have friendly, working sheep dogs and 2 indoor cats. We expect guests to be kind to our animals and staff. You are welcome to smoke outside. If you arrange to have dinner with us, please know that we'll host no later than 10 pm. You may linger longer, but we need to be ready to work the next day.
