A large swimming pool is available for the use of all residents and their guests. Because we have many small children coming to visit, the pool is fenced and there is a security lock. Changing rooms are available next to the pool and an outdoor chess game provides amusement for those looking for an intellectual challenge. The pool area is a tranquil oasis to soak up some sun or cool off in the afternoon heat.
This is a lively group and all newcomers are made to feel at home immediately. The croquet lawn is a green oasis underneath spreading trees close to the entrance to the estate. Club days are Tuesday and Saturday mornings and spare mallets are available for anyone wanting to try their hand at the game for the first time.
A popular pastime is strolling through the convoluted lanes of the village, past the many small parks in the estate and meeting people for a quick chat. For those who want a longer walk, a wander across the golf course, past the orchard and the koi-pond and small herds of Blesbuck and Springbok is a option for the serious hiker. A jog along one of the many tracks crossing the estate will give you a good workout. For those who prefer cycling you have the option of 11 km paved and unpaved roads to cycle through the estate.
