Blue Crane Farm Dullstroom, Mpumalanga

Best Fly-Fishing venue in Dullstroom with luxury self-catering accommodation

Blue Crane Farm is an exceptional fly-fishing destination with two beautifully meticulous and well stocked trout dams. The larger dam is an impressive 9 hectares in size and has several jetties to make your fly-fishing experience an even more enjoyable one.

This charming venue offers natural scenery with free roaming game species such as fallow deer, springbok, blesbok, zebra, hartebeest, and vaal rhebok. The birdlife is remarkable with several endangered species such as the Blue Crane and Crowned Cranes that nest on the farm on a regular basis.

The accommodation on the farm consists of 8 well-appointed self-catering units, ranging from the smaller 2 sleeper cottage to the larger 8 sleeper houses. In total the farm can accommodate 44 guests, which makes Blue Crane Farm the ideal venue for small or larger group bookings.

The units offer privacy, although are easily accessible to walk from one to the other, should you have family or friends in a neighbouring unit. All units face the waterfront, offering amazing views of the surrounding grasslands.
