The Scone Shack: Cape Point's Hidden Gem

Located on Lalaphanzi Farm just before the Cape Point entrance, The Scone Shack is a rustic, wood-fired bakery that feels like stepping into a fairytale. It's the perfect off-grid escape for anyone exploring the deep south.

Why it's a 2025 Must-Do

Expect freshly baked scones, homemade jams, and a menagerie of farm animals to keep you company while you soak in the mountain views.

The shack operates entirely off-grid, using wood-fired ovens to create their signature soft-on-the-inside, crisp-on-the-outside scones. In 2025, it remains a beloved local secret where time slows down, shared with ducks, chickens, and the occasional resident pig.

Top Tip: Afternoon tea at The Scone Shack.
