Description

Set amongst rolling hills, forests and grasslands and near Dullstroom is the very scenic Hartfell farm. The farm offers lovely walks, views and 3 well stocked trout dams for fly-fishing. The farm is split in half by the Kruisfontein Road. The top section is mainly grassland and the lower developed section is mainly forest. This creates a different ambience to most other venues in the area. We cater for both the family getaway with peace and privacy and for the keen fisherman.
