Staging events at Sandstone Estates in the Eastern Free State is becoming more difficult. This is due to the state of the roads which make the coach tour operators reluctant to visit us. People with ordinary cars have to also drive very carefully due to the serious potholes. However certainly as far as our South African market is concerned people are robust and if they want to come they certainly turn up. Friday and Saturday were well attended but Sunday with 100% rain for the day tended to keep the visitors away.
“Very well organised event people friendly , the food drinks set up all a world class event, people that hasn’t been here missing out big time !!” “We had the most amazing time at Sandstone Estates today and I’m incredibly grateful to you for making it such an incredible occasion.
Cosmos Tours.” Our next planned event would be the Cherry Festival in November where the rain is probably not a major threat but with global warming one doesn’t want to be too optimistic about it being guaranteed with the sunny days that we have more or less become accustomed to over the last twenty years. Feedback from our visitors and members of the public are always welcome. We are very influenced by what people think and we are lucky that our experienced staff are able to adjust very quickly to meet people’s needs on the ground and on the day. We would like to extend a particularly warm word of appreciation for our volunteers without whom we could not provide anything like the diversity of experiences that are possible even for a small event like the Easter Festival. Keep an eye on our website for details of our next event!
