Black Horse was established by Bernard Botha and his family, who moved out to the Magaliesberg countryside for his daughters’ health and wellbeing. “We moved here, bought the property, started building, and acquired some horses. That’s where the name ‘Black Horse originated from”, he explains.
With a sleek black coat, the Friesian is a renowned show-horse and one of the most sought-after breeds in the world. Originally from the Netherlands, these majestic horses are the pride and joy of the estate.
At Black Horse Country Estate, Jade, Matthew, and little Mila get to experience the beauty of these horses along with some other cattle, have a tour of the brewery and distillery, enjoy a romantic dinner, and soak in some relaxing time walking and playing in the estate’s expansive gardens.
