Things to see

There is a beautiful scenic drive which leads to the top section of the farm, but this is only accessible in a 4x4 vehicle. This upper section of the farm consists of 60 ha of rooibos tea plantings and 260 ha of unspoilt fynbos gorges and wild flowers in season. Hundred-year-old wild olive trees (more commonly know as olienhout trees) can be found wedged between the rocks. There is also an old hollow rock cave which can be used for a picnic or, for those who really want to "rough it", as an overnight camping spot.
