The beautiful landscape gardens have a different outlook in every direction you go.
A relaxing walk in the gardens filled with different shurbs, flowers and trees.
Every season there is a different look when the weather changes so do the plants.
I love the autumn colour as well as the spring when the plants are blossoming.
You can purchase tickets from the nursery.
The nursery has a selection of herbs and a variety of seedlings you can purchase.
You will also find pots and tube plants.
There are garden features such as windmills to purchase. The garden shop has a variety of garden tools as well.
There is also a cafe to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

Lovely large gardens with a lot of diverse trees, shrubs and other plants. The map was average. I suggested that different areas could be sign posted.

Absolutely loved our experience here. Worth the $15 entry fee. Gardens very well maintained and variety of different flowers and fauna. The sculptures were a fantastic touch. I loved the quotes everywhere too. The woodland area looked great it was nice to have a bit of a track environment. Spent about 2 hours here

"Winter strips the soul bare to welcome the newborn cries of spring" - Angie Welland Crosby. Cloudehill in late Aug is reflecting this. Not wheelchair or stroller friendly- only in the upper level around onsite Seasons restaurant possibly. Free entry for under 16 & Diggers Club members - otherwise $15.
Has been pretty dry for a while, so even non-deciduous greenery - some here are looking sorry & parched. Lacking focal interest but guess areas are being prepped for Spring show hopefully. Both layout map & Cloudehill website is not reflecting the current actual state of what is on offer in winter.
Box hedges however are green & lush & clipped to perfection. Pretty lower meadow of daffodils, bits of jonquils & little peeks of grape hyacinth here & there. Spot the English prickly holly & other cool clime winter flora. Hellebores are abundant near Seasons artwork
Not sure what happened to the Commedia Lawn with the colourful Harlequin, Pierrot etc that would have brightened up the wintry lull. Empty pots at the Peony Pavilion made it dreary - the hostas in pots always added interest here with sweeping downhill/uphill vista to the ornate urn. Minerva Sulis water feature & draping vines in the upper entry terrace is missing too. I look forward to whatever is planned in its stead but atm there is nothing much here that draws the eye in - just wintry drab dryness & bare plots.
The steeper descent into the Woods (gully) is mysterious & a lovely wander through flowering camellias, rhododendrons & towering cedars. Enjoyed this quieter meander but be aware that you will have to make your way up again.
Statues, artwork & concrete engraved quotes scattered around but I am not enamoured with all of them..that's my personal thing. Needs more light-hearted fun stuff to balance it all out me thinks.
Stephanie Alexander with menacing knife near kitchen garden is er.rr menacing! Appreciate the tribute to women of coz. You can get the map for seed hunt which is a fun activity that gets you around.
Takes a lot to manage a massive garden like this. Not like Highgrove Gardens in Cotswold (visited in Sept last year) where a battery of gardeners tend to it & yet, there is abandon to nature principle which you find here too. A Stumpery garden like in Highgrove would work beautifully - when I saw all the fallen logs bordering pathways or left where they had fallen.

Stunning gardens with my senses overwhelmed with fragrance, colour and structures. Something to take in you need to visit more than once so becoming a member would be worthwhile. The nursery wasn't the largest by any means however the garden is exquisite. One of the best gardens I have visited and I have seen plenty. See pics
