WELCOME TO TEMPELHOF GUEST & GAME FARM About Us A friendly welcome awaits you at Chris, Ansie & Chane Stoffberg who will pamper you with warm Free State and farm hospitality.

Tempelhof is situated in the heart of the Eastern Free State, 12km from Ficksburg. Tempelhof offers you a unique wildlife and excellent view of Tempelhof in the Fickburg district was the first farm in South Africa's history (1952) where ground conservation was scientifically applied. The owner at that stage, Mr Frans van Niekerk realized that erosion was deteriorating his farm. He started making contour lines with the help of oxen. Tempelhof became a model farm. Many visitors came to see groundbreaking control of erosion in South Africa. The Van Niekerk family was also known as the "Groenkruis" (Greencross) family. The first homestead on Tempelhof was destroyed by lightning. The house was rebuilt. For the second time the homestead was destroyed by fire. In that same year a new homestead was built. The life-story of Tempelhof and it's inhabitants was broadcast on the "SAUK Afrikaans Radio Station" in 1952. The farm was bought by the present owners, Mr. Christo Stoffberg and his wife Ansie Stoffberg in 1997. It is a historical farm with breathtaking views. The farm is approximately 230 hectares. Soon after they decided to convert into a Guest & Game Farm A friendly welcome awaits you at Chris, Ansie & Chane Stoffberg who will pamper you with warm Free State and farm hospitality.

An absolutely gorgeous farm that is so well maintained and allows for quite a unique experience. We had so many different animal encounters, which resulted in a lovely stay overall. The only thing that made this a 4.5 star rating and not 5 is that we wanted more information prior to our arrival and info about all the animals while being on the farm. Thank you xxx :)

An amazing place to relax and unwind. Will definitely recommend the log cabin as an accomodation. The sound of the lion's, hyenas are mesmerizing. The amazing night skies for the milky way, exquisite!
