De Molen Farm

Catch and release Fly fishing in the Little Caledon. Lovely and friendly owners hosting fly fishing on their farm. Don't expect the 3-5 Kg trout as in the Ash River, but a great experience catching smaller trout up to 450mm. I have recommended a business product supplier who is also a professional fly fisherman and he caught over 42 trout on a 15 degree and windy day.

We were there for a 3 night stay Lin and Brian couldn’t recall we had booked and paid in full. Lin then wanted to accommodate us in a filthy room with the smelliest linen and carpet as a favour. We were left having to look for new accommodation we still waiting on our full refund. Brian wants us to go to court. What you see on the pictures is completely inaccurate. It is filthy. We will be going against them for our refund, we did not cancel, our room that we booked was allocated to other people. We won’t accept 50% refund. We were left destitute and traumatised by their accommodation. Brian an experienced litigator could not even admit his wife was wrong in not even recalling our booked dates. Their dogs were even worse. Oh I forget the part we’re my partner had to help Brian carry a bed ( he doesn’t work there) they couldn’t even recal when last the place was cleaned. Filthy filthy filthy. No human being must stay there.

We came here for a weekend away, and had such an amazing time. The owners were so friendly and helpful. They are also extremely knowledgable about the local area, and can point visitors to great lookout points off the beaten path, as well as memorable experiences to partake in.I would definitely visit them again, and urge anyone looking for a great visit to do so.

De Molen is the most stunning place one can visit in Clarens. It is a working farm, with the most breathtaking views. We love doing the walking routes right up to the cave; as well as the waterfall and picnic spot.Lin and Brian are most gracious and have become dear friends. We try to visit Clarens at least 3 times per year and have stayed in almost all the accommodation on De Molen.Hoping to return soon!

A fantastic place only made better by fantastic owners! if your the type that loves the great outdoors with comfort and a touch of the farm life, then this is definitely the right place for you. thanks to Lin and her family for making us feel at home and very welcome. I cant wait to go back

De Molen farm provides a unique experience apart from other home stays. A vast open land is open to the visitors to explore. The stay will give a different experience if you visit during winter or a tropical climate. Safe for family. The tenants are cooperative. 3 stays are available and you can choose it as per your head count. Non covered parking facility available. Have a small problem with the flies as the sheep shed and horse stable is nearby. Management have arranged anti insect precautions inside the stay. But sometime it will be a bit difficult with the flies (only inside the main room). Rooms are clean.

Tranquil and scenic, fantastic catch and release fly fishing in the river, and beautiful nature walks. The hike up to the cave is worth it for the views! Our accommodation in the Old Milk Shed was superb. We've enjoyed fantastic breaks at De Molen over the last few years, made extra special by Brian & Lin's warm hospitality, and knowledge about the area. The dogs are simply great and make the walks even more memorable. Look forward to returning!

This was one of the best experiences we had for a boys fishing trip. They were very knowledgeable of the area and provided us with great information for hiking. Brian and Lin are very accommodating people. It’s a beautiful farm experience with great amazing views. Highly recommend.

Had an amazing weekend with awesome hosts! Brian and Lin are super friendly and go the extra mile to make your stay unforgettable. Their farm is so beautiful the only problem was that we could only stay for 2 nights. Can’t recommend this place more!

Authentic farm experience with amazing views. Owners are very polite and accommodating.
