I highly recommend heaven and earth horse trails. Janine is an amazing guide who will ensure that all your needs are met, be it fast gallops or relaxed scenic rides. Their horses are in wonderful condition, well schooled and a delight to be with. The scenic sumaridge wine trail is an absolute must. I’ll be back soon! Thanks for having me ????

What a lovely little gem this is. A safe beach and excellent for families. It is lovely to spend the day here. Bring a picnic. There is a bit of grass.

GREAT place with friendly staff! We had a burger for a affordable price that was amazing. We also enjoyed a platter including a Swedish delicacy called Raclette and two glasses of their refreshing Sauvignon Blanc, this is definitely a must have. Overall great experience and definitely one of my favourite farms in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley.

Very nice place to spend half day walking and enjoying the beautiful flora! There are more flowers than you could imagine. The walks/hikes are easy and very enjoyable.
