Kate's Berry Farm

The East Coast


Sit under the wisteria-draped pergola at Kate's (3km south of Swansea) and decide which handmade berry incarnation suits your mood: berry ice creams, jams, sauces, chocolates, waffles, pancakes or pies (go for anything with raspberries involved). Great coffee and 'potted' pies, too (try the beef and burgundy). Look for the signs off the Tasman Hwy.
