Gnomesville: where magic and mystery meet.

Legend says gnomes only move when humans aren’t watching. They turn into statues when human eyes look at them. Legend also says when gnomes get bored hanging about in our gardens, they’ll wander off looking for adventure.

Gnomesville legend says when Poppybeard went on a wander, he found a spot and decided to settle down and live there. What was so special about it? Only the gnomes know. The only thing we humans know is that it became the perfect gnome hangout. Because Poppybeard sent a message to his gnomish mates, and they joined him. And they sent out the message to their gnomish mates, and before you could say “G’day cobber!” thousands of gnomes from all over the world arrived and set up camp.

When night falls and the tourists have departed, the gnomes party — sometimes, it’s a scramble to get back in place as the sun rises. If you look closely, you’ll see some gnomes sleeping off the effects of their hijinks.
