GUIDED GARDEN TOURS

This is a unique opportunity for couples or a small group to combine with other people to experience a personalised guided walking tour of one of Australia’s finest country gardens. For the Tour to be undertaken, a minimum number of 10 people will be required. Therefore, we cannot guarantee your booking until the minimum number of visitors has been reached. Bookings for the garden tour are taken on the day, 15 minutes prior to the tour at the front of The Barn. Tours at 10.30am and 2.30pm.

The cost for Public Garden Tours is $20 per person. This includes:

  1. Access to Glenrock Gardens and its facilities (ie. disabled, male & female toilets)

  2. A backup wet weather meeting location overlooking the gardens;

  3. A personalised guided walking tour throughout the gardens with one of the owners which lasts approximately 1.5-2 hours, your entire visit will likely last approximately 3-4 hours.

  4. A golf buggy, which can access most areas of the garden, is available for those less mobile in the group. This would have to be arranged and completed separately from the walking tour.

  5. A nursery filled with hard-to-find, old-fashioned, perennials and shrubs (you can see the plants insitu in the gardens as well). Leave ample time to wander through the nursery where you can purchase your plants of choice.
