Modderkloof farm is situated at the foot of the Drakenstein Mountains near the Huguenot Tunnel on the N1. The working fruit farm produces guavas, plums, buchu and wine grapes. Grapes are delivered to Boland Wine Cellars. The building that we use for guests is one of two homesteads on the property and divided to accommodate 3 self-catering units. It is about 10 minutes' drive from the town Centre, local schools and hospitals. The main residence of the farm is on the same site as the guest apartments. Guests are welcome to use the swimming pool at the main residence or go for a walk higher up on the farm where one has a beautiful view of the valley, Paarl Mountain, the Taal monument and on a cloudless day you will also see Table Mountain. Guests can also play tennis on the available tennis court. Pack a picnic basket and find a spot anywhere on the farm to relax enjoy the beauty and tranquility of nature. We are members of the Drakenstein farm watch with a working alarm system. Modderkloof farm is also home to 4 dogs which is not only our pets but also our guard dogs.
Modderkloof farm has been in the Grobbelaar family for four generations now. It was bought in 1893 by Kerneels Grobbelaar. Willem is the fourth generation Grobbelaar on the farm and farms since 1992. We want to share the quiet and peace with people who need to get away from their busy schedules.
We are 6 minutes drive from Ashanti which is a very popular wedding venue as well as Ashia (Cheetah Experience). Golf courses like Boschenmeer and Pearl Valley are few kilometers drive from the farm. The very popular Val de Vie polo club is also nearby. Babylonstoren with its beautiful gardens, Labori, Nederburg, Avondale and Mellasat wine farms are also within 10 to 20 minutes drive from Modderkloof Farm. Ohlsen winery is 3 minutes drive from us and guests are welcome to book a tour and wine tasting with them.
