More a "flee market" than a craft market. Was expecting more of some organic or healthy produce. Most of it was deep fried food, even the fresh fruit juice bar drinks were watered down with preserved juices.
The music was excellent and toilets are clean.

This is a great local market that offers free parking and an easy drive from the coast. The market requires masks to enter and is encouraging hand sanitisation and social distancing. It had lots of different food stalls offering local and worldwide produce and local handmade good to buy and very easy to walk around. There was a great atmosphere and a train/tractor ride for the little ones to enjoy.
The venue is also dog friendly.

When entering the parking lot you are welcomed by the sounds of friendly chatter and the smell of food.
It's so nice to see pets, children and different families coming together. Sometimes the music can be loud otherwise the vibe is energetic - would prefer more fresh fruit and vegetables stalls for a bigger variety and better functional toilets.
But all and all they have created an amazing breakaway from the hustle and bustle of mid town.

I don't know if we have been spoilt by frequently attending the Wild Oats Market at Sedgefield, but this market does not compare well to it! It seems like the number of stall holders has dropped since we were here a while back and there is most definitely a drop in visitors too.
I found the fruit and veggie stall to have good quality produce at competitive prices, but I think the majority of craft items are way over-priced!

Saturday morning with wife, mother in law and friend. Surprised by the market - great coffee, good bratwurst and waffles, excellent non alcoholic german beer a brilliant breakfast, some plant, shoe, crystal and hat shopping and whallah - the morning was done and dusted. The market is family friendly with some form of live entertainment on stage. Did not visit the beer garden, but all in all, really enjoyed. Will do this again. Firmly recommend.

The market is exceptionally busy, testament to its reputation and quality. That being said, it is very difficult to keep track of young children when you are there. From a product perspective, there are a few stalls that sell fresh produce, many stalls that sell meals ranging from healthy smoothies to fried just about anything. There are also a number of stalls selling handmade products. A good market, but really difficult to keep track of children when there.

Not enough Farming product, MAYBE BECAUSE OF TIME OF THE YEAR. Great variety of quality handmade products, lots to eat and nibble on.

A lovely market with a good range of products made by some very talented and skilled artisans, If food is your thing, come hungry, especially in the section to the right of the fuel station.

Hello Sandy. the stalls are covered, although an outdoor venue and tables and benches not under cover. Bad weather could make it far less pleasant. Hope this helps.
is there an entrance fee for the market?
