While you’re there

If it’s warm, hop on a canoe and go fishing along the Bitou River. Or simply lounge by the pool with a good book. Adventure lovers will enjoy the mountain-biking trails in the area; golfers will be spoilt for choice with numerous nearby golf courses; and wine enthusiasts will relish the sprinkling of boutique estates around.
