Since my last visit a year ago, there really seems to have been a renewed investment in upgrading, tidying up, and modernizing this venue. The new painted buildings, newly sown lawns and new paved areas, nice kiddies play area, new Potter behind and above nursery and gardens in good health all lead to a less run down hippy hang out experience that other than the restaurant had us and our friends avoiding it in the past. The selection of stores and offerings are now really first class.
What a gem! Several independent designer shops and stalls all on one location. So much to see. Soap, art, pottery, weavery, designer goods as well as a restaurant that also offers genuine vegan options. Worth while to stop over and just walk through the shops. Also has a large outdoor play area for kiddies and lots of parking.
The village have several shops, beautiful gardens and is very tranquil. They clearly cater for international visitors as the prices of products are a bit steep for locals. We will definately visit the village again.

Lovely "village" of craft shops. From soaps to chocolates, leather to wine, this is a lovely space. Sit in the beautiful gardens and enjoy a delicious lunch or try some wine tasting.
We enjoyed our visit here. Love the Mungo shop - such beautiful linen wares. Boplaas stall was great - I bought lots of unusual preserves and honey. We had lunch at the Nice Neighbor café. We loved browsing through all shops. Pretty gardens and lots of parking.
The coolest little market. Awesome to be able to see the looms in action (free tour)
Awesome place! My dog and I spent a few hours wondering around the gardens which have some beautiful and unique flowers. We enjoyed some amazing stores which are more for tourists and perhaps the more effluent locals, but unique crafts and gift options. The restaurant serves fresh squeezed juice and freshly baked breads. There is even tahini and Halva spread available. Excellent place to enjoy some time with family, kids, pets or as a solo experience.
Lovely place to visit but most of the shops are horribly over priced, catering for the overseas tourists I would imagine, apart from the nursery which I found many plants for sale that were affordable. Very nice nursery. The restuarant served very tasty meals but also a little over priced, they obviously have a great chef. Beautiful setting. Lovely garden.
What an exciting little village. Beautiful local products, but a bit expensive if you are on a budget. If you love plants, make sure to visit the nursery, we found a few gems and will definitely visit them again.
Very nice experience. Staff of the place were friendly especially the nice neighbor restaurant and their food were over the top. Thanks to the chef they have. The chocolate shop was good too and the poetry shop as well. Atmosphere was stunning and I mean it. A must visit for sure. One thing didn’t like was the prices of all of the shops way way high.
