Merribee

Spent 3 hours drive, but not what I expected… and lavender plants are very limited compare to the lavender farm in Adelaide. The garden was well designed but not in good condition.

A truly beautiful place to visit.The $6 entry fee is very inexpensive and affordable.The gardens are breathtaking and simply stunning to look at. Very well maintained and tended to with an obvious passion. Stroll the pathways at your leisure and breathe in the relaxing aroma of lavender while you take in the view of the rose gardens and lavender field.Enjoy the menu at the cafe onsite to finish of your visit.A peaceful and relaxing way to spend your day. I only wish I had a green thumb such as theirs ;)As a side note this place would be the perfect setting for a wedding too

$15 entry fee which will be collected at the tiny front desk which also sells ice cream. we got the lavender and honeycomb flavours which melted so quickly, it wasn’t worth getting it as they don’t taste great either. we visited in late january, when the lavender season is over. there were so many people still, many visitors were changing outfits getting the shots with photographers, so be prepared to wait a long time if you’re looking to snap photos without huge crowds. limited toilets which often have lines due to people changing clothes. parking can be challenging, we parked by the side of the road leading towards the garden as there were too many vehicles lined from the garden to outside.overall a beautiful garden especially on a clear sunny day, my advice is to go during lavender season, don’t get the gelato and make sure you have plenty of time.

Beautiful ornamental gardens, amazing topiary. A fantastic venue for a wedding ceremony or wedding photos or weekend visit for a cup of coffee in world class gardens. Discount entry for locals!

Well, La Niña had not deterred us and we trekked down from Sydney to see this.We had seniors and went via pitstop in Mittagong/Bowral and then Kangaroo Valley which was a stone throw and a half away from this gorgeous hideaway garden.Tucked away by corn fields and an abundance of cows backdropped by hills and scenery so beautiful like a painting is this gem. So thankful they decided to open to the public in the past 3 years having being around for 21!The website is your starting point - book your tickets. Don’t walk up, be respectful follow the rules and this way everything will fall in place - we live in a different world vs two years ago - cannot stress this anymore, every business needs support not just by your spend but your respect.And, just on that, I did my research and asked questions. Please - Check the times - Lavender season was our goal, so we were in time and checked the dates. Otherwise it’s only Wednesdays.The garden is well equipped with bathrooms and at the time we visited being 13/12 today, there was coffee and tea - cakes and ice creams. It is also accessibility friendly too, you don’t need to cram and the garden paths are wide enough to stroll comfortably.Lavender field was real. We could enjoy the fragrance from afar and if you’re not afraid of bees walk through it carefully.The remainder of the garden was well executed and maintained - gorgeous mazes from the top Down view - however not to walk on (it’s not necessary to walk through it they have garden paths). There is a display of roses (I’d come back during rose season) and a fantastic backyard view of corn fields which one can just stand and take in. I love the trees out the back too.Lovely place for an event I must say - but otherwise it was a fantastic visit and the staff were very welcoming. Very nice and friendly especially since we came hours drive down it was lovely to be greeted personally at the door.

Great place to have a wedding. Lovely garden options. Great spaces. The barn is a wonderful place for a reception with an outdoor covered dance floor in a lovely courtyard. The staff were very helpful.Nice to visit just for the gardens too.The lavender festival sounds great.

I was very surprised when my friend sent me pictures of this place. I never knew there was a place like this around here. I decided to visit here in the afternoon, there was not many guests and a lot of parking. $ 6 entrance fee is very cheap. The overall environment was very friendly. The garden is arranged in a good proportion. It was the first time I saw a lavender field. Lavender smell makes me feel good and relax. There are many gardens such as lovely rose garden that was very cute. It rains everyday these days, making the walkway a bit mucky but alright. love it here.

We love Merribee. The gardens are stunning. My two young children absolutely love wandering around and exploring. I always feel so relaxed & refreshed every time we visit.

Beautiful gardens, very meticulously look after being so close to where I leave, I will definitely be back again on spring season as it would be more amazing.
