Garden Visits

Redbrow Garden- guest comments:
'An incredible oasis. Complete relaxation and inspirational sanctary for all life'

' A perfect example of what can be achieved with vision and hard work. You have created a beautiful and relaxing world away from the world.'

' A joy to wake to the sound of birdsong in the morning. The beauty of the combination of water, stone and garden is inspiring and reflects deep understanding and artistry. We thank you for helping us celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary so well!'

'A place of abundant pleasures- the gardens, the lake, birds, butterflies, fruiting shrubs and trees. Our family enjoyed every moment at Redbrow and we appreciated the easy proximity to the country hospitality in the villages of Murrumbateman and Gundaroo'.

'We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Redbrow Garden. Now that I have discovered this beautiful place I will be back again with other relatives and friends'

'This B&B is like the secret gardens, a place we will remember as magical'

We are open during spring and autumn for Australia's Open Garden Scheme. Click on the link below for information on the scheme and opening dates.

Australia's Open Garden Scheme
In addition to our Open Garden days we will also have our own 'Special Days' when the garden will be open in Spring and Autumn (dates to be advised) with the total proceeds going to the ACT and Eden Monaro Cancer Support Group.

Located in the midst of scenic undulating forest, grazing land and cool climate wineries, a bare and windy sheep paddock has been transformed into an unbelievable oasis of beauty and seclusion just 20 minutes from Australia's capital city, Canberra.

Redbrow Garden's rambling masterpiece provides seasonal kaleidoscopes of amazing colours, subtle textures and a wildlife haven of natural tranquility. Against a backdrop of Australian eucalypt woodland and the thriving wetland habitat of Redbrow lagoon, the garden combines numerous native and exotic trees, shrubs, bulbs and perennials. Named after the 'redbrow firetail' finches which inhabit the garden year round, the ornamental and productive sections of the garden express vibrant exuberance in spring, extraordinary hues of gold, bronze and burgundy in autumn as well as providing shady relief in summer.

The 25 acre property also incorporates numerous examples of enterprises suitable for small acreages including rural guesthouse accommodation, free range egg production, horse agistment paddocks, berries, fruit trees, daffodils, wedding venue etc.

Farm Enterprises

Redbrow Garden is a multi-dimensional fully integrated property incorporating an intensively productive 25 acre oasis.That simply means that all the farm activities complement each other. Our free range hens utilise the kitchen waste to produce eggs for our bed and breakfast guests. Our orchard provides fresh and preserved fruit for our guests as well as ourselves. All treated waste water is used on the ornamental garden as is the manure from the horse agistment paddocks after composting.We promote sustainable small acreage farming solutions at on site workshops and information days. We also provide day visitors and overnight guests with a comprehensive information booklet on plant species selection for the region including suitable native habitat creation in order to facilitate diversity in both fauna and flora.
Our 260 acre grazing property has been extensively improved with the promotion of native grasses, tree planting, soil and water conservation projects and noxious weed control.For the past 5 years we have concentrated on all the above as well as fattening weaners and steers as the seasons permit without creating undue stress on the property. If you would like to learn more about our environmental conservation program, we offer a consultancy business for intending and existing landholders on a one on one basis or with groups.
