🫤 Definately not for animal lovers as the enclosures are extremely small. We went on a hot day and there is not enough shade or water holes for the animals. The restaurant is lovely though. Peaceful and the pizzas are delicious. Awesome gardens and pond to relax at.

👍👍 I am coming back for the world's best burger ever!!!!! The food was definitely a highlight for us. Rating the food 10/10 just isn't enough, I wish there were a better metric to rate the art that comes out of Chef Mathew's kitchen. The food gave me litteral goosebumps and took me back in time to ex...

Her deep knowledge of the varietal, coupled with her engaging storytelling, made for an unforgettable experience. She effortlessly guided us through a range of Chenin Blanc profiles, from crisp and zesty to sweet a...

👍👍 Review is about the store. They have some lovely items on sale. The wine section has a very good selection. You can find really old vintages here. The stall also sells good jam and dried fruits. The walnuts are the best buy. Excellent quality. But not always available.

😠 This market has lost its soul and what made it so special is now commercialised and cold. Relaxing on the grass with little children and your dogs is now not allowed. We were treated atrociously by the security personnel. A family member with a broken leg wasn't even allowed to be dropped off close...
