Over the festive season we enjoy spoiling our loved ones with something special, but getting something that is unique and personal in the commercial Christmas market is not always that easy.
La Motte’s Farm Shop offers an array of beautiful and unique gifts and special ideas that will make anyone feel spoiled.
See some of the original gifting ideas below. Our friendly shop assistant will gladly wrap them for you, so all you have to do, is sign the Christmas card!

Cape Winelands Cuisine cookbook
The Cape Winelands, from the Constantia Valley to Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Paarl, Wellington, Worcester and Tulbagh, hold the combined history of many different nationalities who, over the centuries, travelled to this most southern part of Africa to start a new life. As they adapted the recipes of their homeland to new surroundings and ingredients and shared their culinary skills with one another, a new cuisine was born. Cape Winelands Cuisine is the result of a culinary collaboration unique to this region.
