SEASONS AT WYNDFORD · FAMILY STAYS
Cherry Season Is Better with the Whole Family
Orchard mornings, lunch back at the farm and a few days together in the Eastern Free State. This November, bring the family to Wyndford for cherry season.
In the shade of a cherry tree, a family outing finds its own pace. Someone is reaching for the next ripe fruit. Someone is comparing what is in their punnet. The children can see, branch by branch, where cherries grow before they ever reach a shop.
November gives the Eastern Free State a short, sweet season for this. A morning among the trees becomes a reason to gather the people you have been meaning to spend more time with: your parents, your children, the ones who linger over breakfast and the ones who are ready for the orchard first.
Bring Ouma and Oupa. Leave room for a photograph together. There is more to take home than cherries.
From the orchard to the Wyndford table
Wyndford’s cherry getaways bring visits to nearby cherry farms together with time at the farm. After the picking, there are meals back at Wyndford, a place to sit and talk, and the mountains waiting if you feel like a walk.
Everyone can bring a different idea of a good afternoon. A little more exploring, a little longer at the table, or a quiet seat beneath a tree. The pleasure is having time for it together.
Let us take care of the travelling
The guided Cherry Weekend Tour runs from Thursday to Sunday throughout November 2026, with travel from Pretoria or Bloemfontein. The trip brings together bus travel, accommodation at Wyndford and guided visits to nearby cherry farms.
It is a way to make the journey part of the outing, with the arrangements taken care of. Special pensioner rates make it easier to bring another generation along.
