This area is a wonderful place to
relax, put your feet up and enjoys the views. Listen
to the bird
life in the garden, go rowing on the
lake, relax in the hammocks or take time out with
your
loved one and enjoy the tranquility of
soothing baths (in the garden) under the stars,
complete
with wine and candlelight. Complete privacy
assured.
Take a walk around the gardens and
try not to get lost amongst the labyrinth of paths
dividing
the woodland areas of magnolias,
rhododendrons, camellias, trilliums, winter roses,
spring
bulbs, clematises and many well established
specialized trees like the Gingko and Maples.
Venture into the native New Zealand plantings area
that leads you into a natural forest out to sweeping
lawns and the new rose garden that is being
developed. Take a walk around the
orchard of fruit
and nut trees and over a bridge where white Peking
ducks sit on their nests of
eggs or young chicks.
We
are sure they are laughing at us sometime when they
quack and
follow us.
A very nice place to finish up
is sitting on a garden seat under the shade of a
weeping cherry blossom tree heavy laden with pink
blossom and it is all on a very small island
in the
middle of the lake. Tranquility!
Or if you wish a more active
getaway, join us in our pleasure boat on the lakes,
for water-skiing and other water sports, fishing,
sight-seeing. There is horse riding next door but
appointments
are required to ensure your booking.
