Gardens of perennials and hedges close to the house and guest cottage lead on to parkland and a reflective lake with a circular boardwalk. There is a Japanese garden and pavilion,a bog garden and extensive use of water in ponds, rill and waterfall. Sweeping lawns lead to the rose and herb garden, a lush fernery and a woodland area. One of the finest gardens in the Southern Highlands.
Southern Highlands
Bellagio
This is an Italian inspired Australian garden developed over the last twelve years on a sloping 5-acre site in East Bowral. Within a perimeter windbreak of Cyprus, interconnected lakes provide a source of water for a series of waterfalls along the highest part of the property. These fall through rills, springs, fountains and a grotto. Cleverly integrated rock work and lavish planting has created beautiful glades leading down to the lawns and terraces around the house. Large eucalypts have been retained while planting of woodlands of dogwood, maple, liquidamber, magnolia, rhododendron, lilac and rare conifers make this a garden of spectacular autumn colour and year-round interest.
