A farm wouldn't be a farm
without animals, and animal lovers will not
be disappointed by the vast array of
wildlife roaming free around the complex.

The Meerkat Family . .
.
Our meerkats originally came from N/a'an ku
se's wildlife sanctuary. Due to conflicts
with other meerkats they needed a new home.
Guests always enjoy watching the family
rummaging around the farm looking for food
or basking in front of the fire on cold
mornings! |

Bokkie . . .
Bokkie the Sprinbok was rescued by Simone
when she was found abandoned when only
months old.
She now spends her time walking around the
Farm greeting guests. |

Max . . .
Max the Oryx was also rescued by Simone when
he was young. He has had his horns removed
for people's safety.
He is very friendly and often approaches
people hoping to get his chin scratched. |

Sammy . . .
Sammy is an African Grey parrot and can be
found at reception. The first voice guests
often hear as they arrive is Sammy saying
'Hello'. Sammy is hugely amusing with
his vast vocabulary and when guests go to
bed they will often here Sammy say 'lekker
slaap' which is Afrikaans for 'sleep well'. |

Jackie . . .
This little bundle of cuteness has perfected
the sad puppy look and can often be seen
going from guest to guest begging for food.
But don't give in to this practised display
as he is on a diet! |

Butch . . .
Butch is a misleading name as this is one of
the friendliest dogs you will ever meet.
Butch loves being stroked and will gently
nudge people with his nose if they stop
giving him attention. He also loves going
for drives and is often found sitting in the
game viewer hoping to be taken along. |

Tessa . . .
Tessa is always seen with a happy wide eyed
expression and loves attention. If she feels
like she is being ignored then she will bark
to let people know she is there!
To find Tessa on a hot day a good place to
start would be the fire place! |

Spike . . .
Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you the
Guest Farm's most photographed resident,
Spike the Bulldog! Spike's good looks
have ensured guests simply have to get their
cameras out, especially when he is on full
model mode posing by his favourite spot at
the pool! |

The farm is also home to peacocks, guinea
fowl and two friendly cats. We also have a
'pets corner' with rabbits, chickens, ducks
and guinea pigs. |
