The property is build from wood and set on a 17 hectare pine, Fynbos and wine farm. Our farm is part of a large secure country estate, called Wedderwill estate. The estate has walking paths, cycling paths and a dam. Our property has its own pool.
After travelling the world, I settled down in South Africa. The climate, people and environment is stunning here. We can go to the beach in the morning, have a delicious lunch in the wine lands and a cycle and braai in the afternoon.
You can horse ride, walk and mountain bike in this area. Cable waterskiing is only 5 minutes away (Blue Rock). The beach is close-by and we are surrounded by vineyards and lovely restaurants. (Waterkloof restaurant & Vergelegen wine estate)
