Within the Banhoek Valley are some of the country's best winemakers and several high class restaurants. Franschhoek and Stellenbosch, with many highly rated restaurants and famous wine estates, are just a short drive away.

There are five golf courses within twenty minutes drive, all highly rated. Horse riding is available at several venues and there are some lovely waters for fly fishing.

Hiking and cycling in the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve is a delight for the energetic and the beach is not too far away for those who wish to relax in the sun.
