The Vintage Ideas Market at Simondium’s Country Lodge offers various vintage treasures, including fashion, accessories and décor items from a range of suppliers. It makes it a good spot to browse and relax over the long weekend. The Vintage Ideas Market runs from Friday, 27 April, to Monday, 30 April, 2018 at Simondium’s Country Lodge

Various exhibitors

The list of exhibitors is extensive and includes a host of first-time participants. Suppliers include Plan B Vintage, The Secret Garden Vintage Shop, D Modern and Antebellum. Add some oomph to your winter wardrobe with stylishly hand-crafted handbags from Zstitch.

A deli is also stocked with delectable goodies, but if visitors want something to nibble, they can stop at the Braai Colony, Holi Cannoli food truck, Precious Patch for decadent waffles or the KIKKA pop-up stall for a bite to eat and gorgeous fresh flowers. Or, if you want to catch your breath – visit Gordyntjies bistro for delicious, rustic home-cooking.

If you want to linger longer, make sure to visit Bester Family Wines for a glass of their world-class Chenin Blanc or the extraordinary Barbera or enjoy a superb craft beer or gin on tap from Elysium Brewing.
