Wallis Creek Water Garden

Stopped by on the way home from Maitland. What a great detour. We had a great little spontaneous tour and chat about the history from the owner, and spent over an hour just wandering around the beautiful ponds and landscapes. Purchased a 'Lindsay Woods' water Lilly and it was flowering within weeks at home and hasn't stopped since we bought it thanks to the expert advice!! I strongly suggest going there instead if you are thinking of ordering online :)

I saw the sign and knowing nothing about it decided to have a look as I am not often in the area and could not be sure when I’d be back this way again. What a treat! The trees, water plants, and gardens - including sculptures, birds, lizards and dragonflies of every size and colour - were a delight to behold. I did not see any frogs - sadly! Informative, friendly folks who didn’t mind me just having a look (I live in a unit) or taking photos. It is absolutely worth a trip if you live anywhere in the Hunter. I’ll be back with a hat, picnic lunch, and a book.

Always fabulous, informative and well worth a visit even if you don’t need to buy any water plants. Although I challenge you to walk away without thinking you need a pond ☺️

Decided to come here as just wanted to get the kids out the house an hour or so. They enjoyed looking at the plants and spotting all the different sculptures. Probably out of season for most flowers but still lovely.
