The HAROLD PORTER GARDENS, a botanical garden containing mostly fynbos (native bush) is situated at the base of a mountain which had waterfalls and gorges. 

TURNBURY The verandah was covered with grape vines and sunbirds had built nests in the lights, it was huge and offered magnificent views of the lake and mountains beyond.
