Walkabout Estate offers you a rustic and private farm stay in a scenic and mountainous area. We farm with cows, chickens, pigs and sheep. Guests are free to roam around and enjoy farm-life. Depending on the season, farm-fresh products such as eggs, chicken, fruit and wood are available. Walkabout Estate can be recommended as a good base from which you can explore the Eastern Free State as well as Lesotho. The Maluti mountains and Katse Dam are easily accessible from Ficksburg. Walkabout Estate is a tranquil place ideal for a relaxing getaway in a rural environment far away from the hustle and bustle. Bring your fishing rod and catch some carp or black bass.

My daughters and I had two nights stay at Walkabout - it was fantastic - very serene and peaceful - excellent host - just so sorry we were not able to stay longer!

Trevor was really helpful when we arrived late at night as he organized meat for our braai. A lovely cottage in a great peaceful setting.

My husband, my little boy of nearly three and I have recently enjoyed a most fabulous time at the Walkabout Estate Guest Farm. It is located in a beautiful part of the Free State and the farm is easy to access, but you still feel that you are miles away from anyone...food for the soul. We stayed in the smaller cottage linked to the house but it was spacious, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. There are loads of interesting things to do on the farm and our little boy had a ball catching crabs, looking at all the animals, watching the tractors and playing with Grant and Charmaine's two girls. The family made us feel totally welcome and part of their family, but at the same time respected that we also wanted to spend time alone. We found the rates exceptional value-for-money and wanted to stay another two nights, but unfortunately other people were booked to arrive. Overall, a wonderful holiday and we will certainly be visiting the farm again.
