Lake Heron is situated in the Elandskloof Valley, just 19 kilometers from the village of Dullstroom. It is ideally suited for the keen fisherman or a quiet, romantic weekend away. The farm offers accommodation in 3 self-catering units that sleep 8 adults and 2 kids under 12 in total.
Fly fishing is available at the bottom dam (Lake Heron - 2ha) with Lake Troy (3ha) a further 500m away on the other side of the old farmhouse & new cottage. All angling is catch and release only, with fly tackle and barbless hooks. There is a small rowing boat, basic rod and reel, and catch & release net, available for your use at each cottage. The dams are stocked with rainbow and brown trout.
The farm is fully game fenced a has Eland, Black Wildebeest, Fellow Deer, Mountain Reedbuck, Blesbuck, Waterbuck, Springbuck, Duikers & Bush Pig (They are often seen in front of the fruit trees and make night sounds around the cottage at night).
Other activities are clay pigeon shooting & hunting. We have a clay pigeon shooting range on the farm, a CTSASA registered service provider. Our hunting activities include wing-shooting, the famous triple McNabb hunt and hunts of indigenous species of game during the hunting seasons.
We have a 120-seater Wedding & Function center for groups and full catering to suit your needs are available on request.
Please Note: There is no service over the weekends as no staff reside on the farm.
