The herb garden behind this house is fascinating. Zuko took us on a lovely and unexpected tour through it, including descriptions of the interesting uses for all the plants. Definitely worth a visit.

Fascinating little museum packed with all sorts, including some frighteningly creepy dolls. The garden was a highlight, and was larger than we expected, with good labelling of plants and herbs. Entrance fee was only 15ZAR so well worth a visit!

This museum needs a makeover. Looks tired and hurriedly curated. Lovely to experience the old homestead though. The indigenous and herb garden could be revamped as well.

Beautifully restored homestead, which gives a good insight into days past. One of three museums you can visit for the price of one. There are not many historic homesteads open to the public, this was a treat.
