Historically part of the Groenkloof Buitepos establishment of the Dutch East India Company, and subsequently, on insistence of Sir George Napier, used as an “outspan” (condition of private ownership), the first conversion of the lease/grazing rights to private ownership, was granted in 1838. In 1898 the original farm was sub-divided into two portions, and the current farm, measuring 1117 hectares, is still in tact… as it was back then! Farmed by the Pienaar family for 100 years it has thus far only changed ownership three times, and is now used, partially, as a “lifestyle”& very productive cattle farm.
