Property info

Gerald's Gift is beautiful.Beyond the expansive lawns and charming English Country garden the vista extends over riverine bush, rolling citrus orchards, conifers and oaks to the hazy blue of the distant Zuurberg mountains. This tranquil 'place by a river' is home to a happy mix of small indigenous wildlife, an abundant variety of birds, a pair each of donkeys and horses, Benson the Great Dane and his best friend Oscar.
