Description

O’Grady Farm – Grannies and Oumas Cottages is a private working farm, 15 km north of Dullstroom in Mpumalanga. Comfortable accommodation is offered in 2 cottages, ideal for the avid fly fisherman or anyone looking for peace and fresh air.

Each cottage is comfortably furnished and ideal for relaxing and enjoying the surrounding countryside. Grannies Cottage is a small cottage with 2 en-suite bedrooms, and a kitchenette and lounge area with a fireplace. Oumas Cottage is a 4-bedroom cottage with 2 bathrooms. Each cottage is equipped for self-catering with a fridge, an oven and stove and a microwave.

The farm is ideal for hiking, bird watching, and mountain biking, followed by a few drinks round the fire. You can choose from a wide range of both gentle and more strenuous walks and hikes. The trails are not marked but you can easily follow cattle trails or vehicle tracks, using the cattle gates to move from one field to another. Farm gates must be closed and dogs are to be kept on a leash if cattle are nearby. Look out for abundant wild flowers with over 200 species in the area, including orchids, pelargoniums and wahlenbergias.

The greater Dullstroom area is a birders paradise, and is home to over 300 species including 3 species of the endangered South African crane. Bird lists are available in the cottages. Dullstroom is known for its high-altitude training and offers some challenging rides both on the property and in the nearby area.

The farm dates back to 1879. A Catholic church was built by the family in 1952 and services are still being held every first Saturday of the month.
