There is much to do within the reserve - one of the best things to do is absolutely nothing. There are mountain bike trails and hiking trails, horseback riding, swimming (either in your private pool or in the stunning river pools), guided nature walks, and generally enjoying the peaceful surroundings of the area.

Additionally, excursions can easily be arranged to nearby Hermanus, known as the on-shore whale watching capital of the world.

Franschhoek is also a popular destination with guests, offering some of South Africa's most prestigious wine estates and arguably the best cuisine in the country.

Porcupine Hills is just minutes away from one of the largest dams in the Cape, Theewaterskloof, where guests can windsurf, swim, and play golf with extraordinary views of the mountains.
