Getting around
On the property
Stream and swimming holes
We have a stream that runs through the property. Feel free to explore. Our property goes up to the bridge. There are a couple of nice swimming holes, one with steps to it. At times there is algae in the stream, but after it has rained it is cleaned up.
Swing over stream
A little swing over the stream that many kids have spent endless hours on.
Lake
Feel free to use the kayak to explore the lake. A couple of brown teal ducks live in the lake. In parts it is very deep (3 meters). Always wear a life jacket.
Food forest
At the entrance is a 5 year old food forest. It is rugged by design allowing many different insects, and birds to live in it. It has many varieties of fruit and we are happy for you to wander through and pick whatever is in season. Also we are happy to give you a tour of it.
Pizza oven
Wood fired pizza oven. If you want to use, please let us know and we can set it up for you.
Our tiny house
Where we live (please respect our privacy). If you have any questions please call on 027 316 4777. We share the same driveway so you may also see us traveling on that.
Water
Our water is from the spring and filtered before coming into the house. We usually drink from the tap.
