The self-catering farmhouse, sleeping
up to 10 people, serves as a base for a wide variety of
activities and tours on the farm and in the surrounding
area. The large, comfortable farmhouse, built in 1937,
is situated so as to offer spectacular views of the farm.
The house has 5 bedrooms, a large living and dining area,
a well-equipped kitchen, two bathrooms and a wide verandah
on two sides. The house is designed for socializing so
the kitchen, lounge and verandah are popular places in
which to meet and relax. The farmhouse is cool in the
summer and is warmed by cosy fireplaces during winter.
The lovely gardens offer tranquillity and peace and there
is a plunge pool in which to cool off on hot summer days.
The
well-equipped kitchens are perfect for self-catering but
dinner, breakfast and lunch can be supplied on request.
Alternatively, your first groceries can be bought for
you so you can really relax and enjoy the restful nature
of Kurisa Moya.
The
two Forest Lodge cabins, each sleeping 4, are set in a
