Nestled in the foothills of a picturesque and uncommercialized part of the Drakensberg, Horseshoe Farm truly is an undiscovered gem. A place where you will be received with old fashioned hospitality and leave as part of the family. When you come, come hungry as our cuisine is inspired by farm living and we make use of only the freshest, locally sourced ingredients (our meat comes from our own fields) and our portions are designed for hard working men. So escape the city to find some peace and come home to the nostalgia of good living and slow food.
Guests are welcome to take part in the day to day of farm life with activities such as cattle and sheep counts, dam fishing and mountain hikes. The area is also great for adventure bikes, mountain bikes, trail runs and 4x4. Horseshoe Farm is a mere 4 hour drive from Durban or Johannesburg - and about 30 minutes from Newcastle. With a passion for personal service and quality, Horseshoe Farm is the perfect place for a getaway, wedding, group retreat or conference.
Escape the city:
Nothing is better or more valuable than spending quality time with friends and family and there’s no better place to do that than on Horseshoe Farm.

Be adventurous:

10 guests' feedbackA lovely place to stay in and to explore the area.
We attended a wedding function at horseshoe farm it was lovely. The scenery. Flowers. View. Food. Stayed over 1 night. Koot, the owner, was most accommodating. The decor at the farm is beautiful. Keep it up.
Will be back again. Incredible food and road is easy to drive. No need for a 4x4. Had a lovely stay.
The room was very neat and the food incredibly tasty. The owner is also extremely friendly and helpful. Everything from the view from our porch to the effort made for us, everything was great. We will definitely visit again soon.
Would just recommend some signage for parking.
Nice spot out of town for a break.
Horseshoe Farm is beautifully situated in the mountains near Normandie. Despite a lot of rain, the dirt road was no problem. Our guest room was very comfortable and clean, but unfortunately we did not have a private bathroom/shower. The breakfast was very tasty and the service friendly. I would definitely recommend Horseshoe for family gatherings. The garden is beautiful and large with a nice lapa and offers plenty of play space and the living areas are spacious and comfortable.
We were looking for accommodation in the area. Was pleasantly surprised. Character. Good location. Tranquil. Good service. Will stay more than one night next time.
Staying at Horseshoe is like visiting beloved family. You are also treated like this. Beautiful farm with the most beautiful garden. Friendly host.
We were pleasantly surprised with our stay at Horse Shoe Guest Farm. We felt welcome and at home. We traveled with foreign guests and their young children. The dinner and breakfast were top notch. The environment is nice and quiet, a real farm atmosphere prevails. The host is extremely considerate and a lot of effort is made to make the experience for the guests as pleasant as possible. We will visit again.
