The benefits of living in Vanwyksdorp are its friendly and supportive community who love to trade their home grown and home baked foods at the Saturday Market Days. Four great coffee shops such as Spekboom Restaurant, Stuff, Bufelfontein Gallery and the Vanwyksdorp Mall add to the community’s charm. A Pudo pick-up point (Courier Guy) is available to ensure that your online shopping can continue to your heart’s content.
