Cherry and apple trees blossom in mid September offering an incredible sight of delicate white flowers. Cherry trees bear fruit during October and November.

The beautiful sandstone formations are distinctive features of the area. If you want to do something more active, you could bring mountain bikes for cycling on the farm or along the farm roads and through the cherry orchards. It is nestled next to the dam stocked with Bass.

Magnificent views of the mountains can be seen from all corners of the house. Various 4x4 tracks in the vicinity and hiking trails are available on the farm and in the vicinity. Down at the dam you can paddle in canoes and try your hand at bass fishing or stroll up to the summit of the mountains to enjoy the quietness of nature and do some bird watching.

There are the most wonderful indigenous flora and fauna to explore against the slopes of the hills. If you are a photographer this is the ideal place!

Aan Tinus en die span. Woorde kan nie beskryf hoe fantasties die naweek was nie. Julle het uit julle pad gegaan om Henrico en Catherine se troudag 'n droom te maak. Ons kon nie vir n beter plek gevra het nie. Die venue, die personeel, die kos, die verblyf. Sommer net alles was van hoogstaande kwaliteit. Nogmaals dankie en ons sal die woord sprei van hierdie diamant
