The Kraal is extremely convenient for Bird viewers that would like to stay for the weekend, taking your time to wander on the 23 hectare farm with an abundance of trees and as this is the start of the Bushveld we have indigenous trees, such as African Wild Seringa and Protea Kaffra (Suikerbossie) literally enveloping the cottage and Kraal.

We have installed a water hole and feeding area for small antelope that often visit the Farm. One such water feature at the Cottage, privacy to the Cottage guests for their duration of their stay on the Farm, else the 2nd water and feeding area will be pointed out to our guests.

Just a quick note to say that the Tinkling Cisticolas are currently quite vocal in the De Tweedespruit conservancy just north of Cullinan (broadleaf Burkea sections). One particularly confiding pair was located just before Bee Tree Farm on the SE side of the road. Also of interest there is a pair of Pearl-breasted swallows busy with nest building.

You can relax in the serenity of the bush veld or venture into town for lunches, or explore our Town Cullinan. More information on trips in an around Cullinan can be requested from Sonja.
