About

Nestled just a short drive from Daylesford and Ballarat, The Garden of St Erth is a historic house enveloped by enchanting gardens — the perfect retreat for nature lovers, garden enthusiasts, and anyone seeking peaceful inspiration.

Wander through their exquisite gardens where espaliered fruit trees, heirloom vegetables, and drought‑tolerant flowers flourish together in harmony.

The gardens reflect not only traditional borders - the bush garden is alive with native birdsong, an ideal space for reflection, reconnecting with nature, and restoring calm.

Visit their nursery and garden shop: where the friendly, knowledgeable team is always ready to help. Choose from an expansive selection of heirloom seeds and plants, everything you need to bring a piece of St Erth home.

Their café is open daily, offering hearty meals, freshly brewed coffee, and homemade cakes in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Five stars only don't do justice to this wonderful place. It is a heaven of greenery and diversity. Do not miss trying the great food at the café. The team is attentive and considerate throughout the property, really trying hard to solve customer's issues. All seeds are reproducible with a large proportion being Australian heirloom. A must-visit place for all!
