We left St Francis Bay at 7:30, had a huge omelet for breakfast in Twee Rivier. Arrived at the Belfry kitchen at 9:00 with the best coffee and then continued our drive arriving into Sutherland, Middlefontein farm at 16:00 after collecting keys in town. The road is good, on the N1 then a short dirt road and then the rest of the drive on the R354. A few of dodgy repairs on the left hand side close to the edge of the road where it had deteriorated, so Michael had to stay sharp.
Middlefontein farm is a gem, owned by Juanita and in her family from her grandad's time. Juanita's mom grew up on the farm.
Somehow Juanita's dad, bought the farm back and have what seems to be two cottages and this two bedroom house in which we are staying, which they rent out on booking.com.
Michael is busy making a braai in the kitchen.
This house has two bedrooms and a lounge which Juanita kindly turned into a third bedroom for Andrew, Amy and Holly. Even Nancy the bulldog is welcome. Carolyn and Terrance have one of the rooms and Michael and I the other.
So very accommodating, it is the most magical place with 4 different hikes, a river and a lovely feel.
Michael and I got lost on the three kilometers one so we going to try the six kilometers one tomorrow.
