What a stunning place. We visited on a rainy day, the garden was so alive and mushrooms growing everywhere. The best carrot cake and scones ever. Everything is beautifully decorated with edible flowers from the garden, freshly prepared with quality ingredients. I bought ferns and ground cover from the nursery at a very reasonable price. Good place to relax, would recommend 100%, and will be back.

This little enchanted tea garden is just amazing...at the end of the road up the rural area of wilderness...it's really a hidden gem...it's not the most modern little tea garden but the garden itself is certainly the best...there isn't a huge menu just a few items but it's the quality of the items served...it's all freshly made & from the garden...there is a lovely choice of teas & coffee...the tea garden doubles as a plant nursery...with lots of beautiful flowers & succulents to purchase...the owner is so honest & friendly it's refreshing...highly recommend this hidden gem just to relax in an amazing little part of heaven...

This is a privately run little tea garden. You have to see this beautiful garden! I had the apple tart, and it was delicious!

I love this place. Quiet. Peaceful. Soul filling. I love having tea and cake under the trees with no one around. Down to earth, simplistic, holistic, real. 100 heart beats away from commercial hussle bustle and hurries. Don’t be in a rush when stopping here. Be here to smell the flowers.

A whimsical oasis of simple, home baked goodness in a beautiful corner of paradise. No frills, no fuss, no fanciness, only great tastes, and the sights and sounds of nature.

Really lovely spot with really good scones and the apple crumble looks so good I'll definitely be back to give that a try.

A magical little secret garden on the 7 passes road! A beautiful little tea garden full of lush greenery and happy plants wherever you look. A little water feature with the birds darting in and around, a warm welcome by the owner, and some of the most delicious tea I have had, ever! The vegetarian choices are quite limited, unfortunately. They did have a veg bolognese on special (which I see is highly rated), but we arrived for a brunch and were not quite ready for a pasta yet! Our carrot cake was served beautifully with some edible flowers, our fresh and delicious herbal tea with a view over the countryside, definiely a space to escape to for some tea and a recharge. There is a menu posted on their Facebook page some time ago that doesn't seem to be relevant any more (2021, LONG time ago!) but worth noting for those who may arrive craving those platters, like we were ;)

A must for those travelling through the Garden Route. The tranquil surrounds, accompanied with the most delicious homemade cakes and scones, is an unbeatable experience.
