The Voorspuy Family

Cindy and her two grown up children, Archie & Imogen have lived at Deloraine since 1993.  Three years prior to this the Voorspuys' set up Offbeat Riding Safaris and they have been operating this hugely successful business ever since....with Deloraine as the base for operations as well as being their family home.

Christine & Margaret

There is not much that these two do not know about looking after our guests at Deloraine!  Christine, the head cook is a genius in the kitchen, producing mouthwatering menus, whilst Margaret is in charge of the house and bedrooms.  With exceptionally high standards the house always looks immaculate, but still maintains its relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Peter - Head Syce (groom)

With over 60 horses at Deloraine, we have a team of 10 syces, led by our head man, Peter.  Peter is a very skilled horseman as well as a farrier.  Along with his team,  he manages to keep the horses fit and healthy at all times.  Not only do our horses go on safari but many also play polo and compete (show jumping, dressage & cross country) with Cindy, Archie & Imo, making for experienced, well schooled and well rounded horses.

The Voorspuy family have been based at Deloraine since 1995 and have been involved in many local community projects over that time.  The Leldet Primary School and Deloraine Nursery School were originally set up on the farm by Pam Scott and the numbers of children have swelled over the last 20 years. During this time they have re-built the nursery school, provided new loos and built another two desperately needed classrooms for the primary school.  

The Voorspuys also fund a forest protection security team for the Koibatek Forest adjacent to the farm.  This is a much threatened cedar and olive forest with rare fauna such as Colobus monkeys, red duiker, crested guinea fowl, Ross’ turaco and many more finding refuge there.  It is a government forest but lack of resources mean that it is threatened by charcoal burners and cedar post cutters, who commercialise their activities well beyond the forests sustainable capacity.
