Gift Shop
Tea by the Sea not only offers tea and scones in a relaxed garden setting but guests can also partake in a little shopping on the side.

The gift shop located in the courtyard at the back of the homestead offers an array of products which are sure to please locals and tourists alike. Music to the girls ears no doubt!

Buying a unique gift couldn't be more convenient - order a cuppa from the selection of 13 types of specialty teas and while it brews nip into the shop to find everything you need to host your own private tea party!

All of our teas are available for purchase and are divinely packaged making them an ideal gift. Shabby chic and cutesy gifts can also be found inside the tearooms for that special someone in your life who already has everything.

"It’s the perfect place where guests can relax and take their time to wander around and find a treat or memento of their experience at Tea by the Sea to take away with them. There's a special holiday feel about the place too which is the perfect environment for relaxed beachside browsing. And what's more there will be a refreshment waiting for them to celebrate their purchase" enthuses Suzi van Middelkoop, proprietor of Tea by the Sea.
