Sheldon Guest Farm - Nelspruit (Ref 1124)

Description

Sheldon Guest Farm situated between White River and Nelspruit in Mpumalanga offers child friendly self catering accommodation, providing a wonderful opportunity to experience farm life and nature. Shaun and Belinda Loudon, parents of 4 children moved to the Lowveld from Johannesburg in 2005. The motivation for the move was to find an ideal environment in which to raise the children. Quality time spent together as a family and giving children the opportunity to play and explore freely while engaging with the magic of nature are things highly valued.

The luxury self catering cottages provide families the opportunity to experience
first hand where vegetables come from, riding on a tractor, attempting to catch a fish and gathering eggs. At Sheldon Guest Farm we strive to provide an all
encompassing farm life experience which is simply not available to families living in the city.

The farm is a children's paradise with a trampoline, jungle gym, swings and a 20 ha working farm to explore. Bring your bicycles and fishing gear and don’t forget to bring a hat and your preferred protection from the sun.
