They have been making Wire Trees for a long time – starting in Zimbabwe, and for the last 3 years or so – from Ventersburg. Ever passed their stall? – Right next to the N1 Caltex Garage – you would see their display. They take in orders also – and have made HUGE trees for some customers. To make such a tree takes anything from 2 days to 2 weeks. Talking to them – i can see they are very proud of their craft.

Die Kuierhuis – Guest House & Wedding Venue

•May 28, 2012 • Leave a Comment

Welcome to my favourite Guest House near Ventersburg. Die Kuierhuis … english?  – The House that you have to go back to for best meals, farm atmoshpere and and …. and the nicest people.  How can i say all that in one english word… no – still don’t have a clue. Words like nostalgic, welcome, warm, peaceful, unique… all comes to mind.

Ever noticed how a guestfarm/lodge looks like the next one – looks like the next one…. well – Die Kuierhuis is NOT like that. It is more FARM – more FAMILY – long nights under the stars, and the peaceful quietness you can only get in more remote places…

Meet Tannie Amanda & Oom Andries – they are the owners and managers of the guest farm.

They have been back in the Free State for more than 10 years – living and farming on the  family farm.  And one soon become friends after a short visit. They have 3 beautiful daughters – and it was always so nice to see how they all chipped in and worked at functions. But now – they are all grown up…. my how time flies.

We have taken photo’s at countless weddings at Die Kuierhuis – the sunset photo’s that is always show stoppers.

There is so much i can say about them – but since pictures speaks a thousand words…. here is my share:

slideshow format…. so keep looking…

Want to visit Tannie Amanda & Oom Andries? Taste that home-made wholesome food and experience FRESH air…?
