This stunning property is ideal for the development of a conference centre, wedding venue, chalets, caravan park, tented camps and glamping. Situated only 40 minutes west of Bela Bela on the R516 tar road, the farm boasts a combination of mountains with massive granite rocks, valleys, and flat areas, making it an ideal location for a combination of game and tourism.

The property offers an abundance of natural beauty, with water streams, stunning rock formations, and large trees making it a haven for nature lovers. The farm offers excellent walking trails and is ideal for the development of a tourism business with lodges. The development rights were previously approved for an eco-estate, and a new application can be submitted. Some areas also suitable for cattle.

The farm also features a large thatched rondavel home with two bedrooms (en suite) and two additional bedrooms. The open plan lounge, dining, bar area, and kitchen provide ample space for relaxing and entertaining. The property also includes a large farm shed, a lockable workshop, a slaughtering area, a cool room, and a range of farming equipment.

Hiking trails, which were planned and laid out by professional consultants, offer stunning views of the valley adjacent to streams and granite pools. More than R300,000 has recently been spent to upgrade approximately 20km of roads on the property.
The farm features three boreholes, one of which is fitted with a submersible electrical pump, while the other two are unfitted but have a capacity of 40,000 to 50,000 and at least 1,000 litres per hour respectively.

Several fountains feed the streams that flow through the property, and large granite pools usually retain water throughout the year. The farm has a diverse range of grasses and trees, many of which are unique to the area. Dendrologists and tree club members have been impressed by the variety of trees, including species such as marula, stamvrug, wild fig, and coral. The area is home to a large variety of bird species, and several game species, including Blue Wildebeest, Impala, Kudu, Bosbok, Ribbok, Duiker, Klipsprigers, Warthog, Bush pigs, Baboons, and Grey velvet monkeys, roam freely on the farm.

The property presents an excellent opportunity for development. A gatehouse has already been built for a housing scheme, and the property was previously approved for resort usage. The previous development project included a village with 80 stands on approximately 45 hectares, an eco-estate with 20 erven on approximately 300 hectares, and a commercial area with shops. The previous owner had provisional permission for a petrol station and garage, subject to a separate EIA.

This property is registered as Agricultural land, and the previously approved development project can most likely be started again in the future.
