With the unique biodiversity of the area restored on this property for several decades, and a declared Private Nature Reserve since the eighties, it embodies a safe and protected haven for a plethora of indigenous birdlife, fauna and flora,including the rarely seen Brunsvigia josephinae or giant candelabra
lily.
