“A must visit place if passing through Hamilton. Even though we're in Autumn and some of the displays were in change over of planting or die back for the season it was still beautiful. We went later in the afternoon and it was relatively quiet, taking photos without people in every frame was easy. Plenty of parking.”

“Probably one of the best play grounds in Hamilton! This place is great because it doesn’t rely only on playground equipment but well thought out garden and plant arrangements set out to best encourage little ones to explore. It’s also very pleasant that the majority of the playground is under natural tree cover.”
