Description

Sheeprun Farmstay offers comfortable accommodation on a working farm situated 4 km off the R56 which connects Maclear and Mount Fletcher, below the picturesque Southern Drakensberg Mountains. Experience the slow pace of country life at its best. Sheeprun Farmstay is ideal for family holidays, weekend getaways or overnight stops.

Accommodation is offered in 2 units in the main house, and a third unit in a separate rondawel. Each unit has its own private bathroom with a shower, a toilet and a washbasin. 2 of the units have their own fridge and microwave.

Guests are welcome to make use of the communal main house open-plan fully equipped kitchen, dining room and lounge area with fireplace. This opens to a large stoep with seating and braai facilities, the ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon beer.

Bring your mountain bikes and explore the many farm roads. Hike the surrounding mountains, view some historical Bushman paintings or take a leisurely stroll around the dam. The Pot River which runs through the farm is a mere 600 m from the Main House, ideal for tubing and swimming.

It also supports a very healthy stock of wild rainbow trout. There are a variety of options to fish, from narrow deep pools to wide slow meandering sections, to the exiting riffles and rapids where nymph fishing can be highly rewarding. River access is easy on foot and there are roads to various upstream and downstream sections.

The farm is conveniently situated close to some of the highest altitude gravel passes of the Eastern Cape Highlands which are any 4x4 enthusiast or motorbiker's dream.
