The History of Getaway Farms
Getaway Farms is a well know tourist attraction situated in the Rayton/Cullinan District.
The farm was inherited from my late father, Bob van Luik, and I, Trevor van Luik, learned that certain buildings on the farm were originally the Van Der Merwe Railway Station, which was situated on the railway line from Pretoria to Machadodorp, between Koedoespoort and Rayton Station.
