OUTDOORS:The hot Karoo air provides an intoxicating backdrop for the clear turquoise waters of the solar heated salt-water swimming pool, where you can relax and soak up some sunlight. Tucked away in a tranquil corner of the homestead’s garden it also features a friendly pool bar. For the golf enthusiast, improve your short game on a short pitch-and-putt hole, with a separate practice green at the lodge.

Other leisure activities can be found in the Garden Route: Enjoy the beauty and adventure of this area, with whale watching, hiking, horse riding, fishing, game viewing and much more. Renowned for its first-rate golf courses, the area provides sportsmen with varied challenges in spectacular surroundings - including the magnificent courses of Fancourt in George, only 50 minutes away. Home of the 2003 President’s Cup and the 2005 Women’s World Cup of Golf. Then there's Pezula, a Championship Course in Knysna, and of course the Oudtshoorn Country Club, set to become one of the definitive Golf Course Estates in the Karoo.

INDOORS:For the more quiet and reserved guest, you'll find a beautifull lounge with two cosy fire places where you can stretch out, relax and read a book or two.

In the dinning area you'll find an African atmosphere, reed ceilings and scented summer fragrances waft in from the garden immersing the spacious patio area, where guests are invited to dine during the long summer months. Enjoy generous farm and continental breakfasts and a la carte dinners, including a choice of the finest local specialities: ostrich, fresh fish, succulent Karoo lamb, game or fresh farm chicken. Very pleasing indeed.
