Meet Fergus, our sassy garden gnome and the self-proclaimed Mayor of Porongurup Chalets! 🍄

Fergus takes more pride in his fabulously well-groomed beard than he does in his Mayoral duties (shh, don't tell!). It's meticulously styled to perfection, making him the envy of gnome-kind.

Keep your eyes peeled around the place - you might just stumble upon some of his mischievous gnome buddies causing a ruckus.

Say hi to Fergus on your next visit!
