    It’s in an excellent part of Bloemfontein, close to the N1 with some lovely restaurants close by too. But its beauty is its quiet when you there which makes you feel like you on a farm outside Bloem. The room is super large and very comfortable....

Company information

My wife and I love to travel and to entertain family and friends. Greek Islands, Russia, Argentina, Italy and Okavango Delta was some of our favourite destinations that we have visited so far. We also really enjoyed Australia’s Gold Coast, Egypt and Thaiwan. We can’t life without our children, good coffee, good food, good music and quality toilet paper. Our house and everything in and around our small holding is like a piece of heaven to us. Every time we get the change to relax or do some catching up on reading, our home gives us the feeling that we are on holiday.
