The carriage features a bathroom, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay.

For sleeping arrangements, there is a bunk room as well as a main bedroom. The bunk room is designed to accommodate 2 kids or a single adult and one kid, featuring a bunk bed with slightly smaller dimensions than a standard single bed. The top bunk measures 180 cm x 62 cm, while a typical single bed measures 188 cm x 92 cm. It provides a cozy and snug sleeping space for a child or smaller adult.

The main bedroom offers a comfortable sleeping area for two adults. The bed is designed to ensure a good night’s sleep, allowing you to wake up refreshed and ready to explore the beautiful surroundings. The interior of the train carriage is small but practical, exuding a delightful charm that adds to the overall experience.

Outside the carriage, you’ll find a lovely braaipit, perfect for enjoying outdoor meals and immersing yourself in the serene countryside ambiance. Additionally, there is a pool with a stunning view over the surrounding landscape. It provides a refreshing retreat on warm days, allowing you to cool off and unwind in a beautiful setting.

In summary, staying in this converted railway train carriage at Red Earth Farm offers a unique and extraordinary experience. With its well-equipped kitchen, dining booth, bathroom, bunk room, and main bedroom, it provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay. Despite the compact space, the carriage’s practicality and gorgeous interior design make it a charming and memorable place to spend your vacation.

Two nights to choose from!
Book now: www.qkt.io/billyj

https://www.facebook.com/share/dHToapJ81XHJ51EU/?mibextid=9l3rBW

After a sold out debut in 2018, the band was rapidly signed by management Evenemento. Within only a few months a theatre tour was booked for season ‘19/’20 with 64 dates confirmed throughout The Netherlands. Unfortunately the tour was ripped apart because of the Corona Crisis and so was concluded only in season ‘21/’22. For season ‘22/’23 a staggering 82 dates were booked only in the Netherlands, 5 appearances on national television and one of the four winners of the immensely popular television SBS6 show “The Tribute: Battle Of The Bands” which resulted in a sold out concert @ Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. For season ‘23/’24 there have been 57 shows confirmed in the Netherlands, 10 in the U.K., 2 in Dubai and offers are coming in from Germany, Austria, Belgium and India. But first things first... the band can’t wait to tour South Africa!

HERMAN KLEINHANS
Die Poëtiese Stem van Suid-Afrika
Herman Kleinhans staan bekend as 'n kunstenaar wat die diepte van Suid-Afrikaanse musiek raak met sy sielvolle lirieke en melodieĂ«. Sy huldeblyklied "Dankie" is 'n roerende ode aan moeders oor die hele wĂȘreld, geskep tydens 'n tydperk van isolasie en onsekerheid. Die lied het nie net die harte van luisteraars verower nie, maar ook 'n ereplek op radiostasies landwyd ingeneem. Herman se musikale reis het hom van 'n ATKV-Cresendofinalis tot 'n bekroonde sanger en liedjieskrywer geneem. Sy eerste groot oorwinning was met die liedjie "Ek Sweer" in kykNET se Afri-Visie-kompetisie, wat sy talent vir skryf beklemtoon het. Sy samewerking in die duo TWEE het hulle die Ghoema-toekenning as die publiek se gunsteling-duo besorg. Kleinhans se musiek, gekenmerk deur sy organiese gevoel en universele temas, spreek tot die siel en skep 'n nuwe nismark in Afrikaans met sy poĂ«tiese, boheemse en filosofiese lirieke. Kleinhans, wat tuis voel op die pad en in die hartjie van Patensie, bly 'n inspirasie vir vele met sy musiek wat die lewe in al sy skakerings vier. Hy is 'n ware ambassadeur vir Afrikaanse musiek, wat met elke noot en woord 'n storie van liefde, hoop en menslikheid vertel.
