Additional Information

The Gardens

The centrepiece of the property is the 25-hectares of spectacular international display gardens. The Hunter Valley Gardens are designed with sight, colour and fragrance very much in mind. Shape and form are paramount everywhere and you can sense the passion behind the creation of the gardens. Bill Roche has been personally involved in every aspect and detail, regularly walking the site to establish the positioning of features as well as plants and trees as well as deciding where seats should be placed, as he wants to make sure visitors to the gardens have every opportunity to enjoy them in comfort. Bill says, "I have always loved the beauty of a well formed garden and the opportunity to share this with people from all over the world will be a great thrill". Encompassing more than 8-kilometres of walking paths, each section of the garden blends so subtly into the other that you hardly notice the change in the plants and foliage until you come to features such as a column in the Italian Grotto topped by a statue of St Francis of Assisi, patron saint of birds and animals. An impressive range of statuary has also been strategically placed throughout the themed gardens, which include a Lakes Walk, the classic European Formal Garden and the Chinese Garden. Visitors can relive their childhood with their favourite larger-than-life fairytale characters in the spectacular Children's Story Book Garden, where you can even join the Mad Hatter for a cup of tea! A lavish array of colour and scent is found in the Rose Garden, with more than eight thousand roses on display. Within a short walk, through 180-year-old antique traditional Indian elephant gates, is the Mosaic Tea Garden, St Francis of Assissi in the Italian Grotto, the majestic 10-metre waterfall of the Sunken Garden and the elegant Japanese Garden. The whole garden is an exciting journey through plants, trees and shrubs with an air of discovery at every turn for old and young. Guided tours are available and the gardens are designed to be accessible to disabled visitors.
