A Beautiful Farm That Makes An Ideal Spot For Hunting And Fishing

Enjoy the freedom of being the only guests at this farmhouse, just off the N3 en route to Durban, where you can enjoy a variety of actvities, or simply relax and unwind, says Riaan Hattingh.
The Muller House Guest Farm is 190km from Johannesburg in the eastern Free State. Ronel Muller, daughter-in-law of the current owner, Danie, says: “My husband Boom’s grandfather, Japie, was paid out for property he owned when the Vaal Dam was built. He travelled with his two-horse cart to this farm, which he bought on auction in 1937.”
The initial purchase was only of a section of the current farm, and several others have since been added. The farm is named Tarlton and comprises 1 000ha.
Today, fourth-generation Mullers live there, and Japie’s two-horse cart is proudly displayed on the stoep of the guest house, which was originally designed and built in 1929.
SELF-CATERING ACCOMMODATION
The house has four bedrooms, each with a double bed. A fully equipped kitchen and braai area are available, as is a large stoep with a dining table and plenty of seating so you can enjoy the warm, fresh air. However, guests can make use of the indoor lounge and dining room as they please.
