We came to see the Tinker Bell and Dream Fairies. Very nice interactive experience. I was concern of parking but there are lots of parking locally. The park is well maintained, plenty of space and shade. Bring a picnic rug, perfect for picnic and young children to run around on the lawn. I would like to visit again.

The property was beautiful and the garden was a well-tended. There could easily be a small cafe on site but the ad hoc coffee in paper cups was welcome at the end of our visit. On street parking is available. There's no car park.

A small and beautifully kept garden which is a photographer's dream, so much more pretty and aesthetic than Melbourne's Royal Botanic Gardens. All the more impressive as it used to be privately owned, now in the care of the National Trust of Australia.

It was a joy to visit the Rippon Lea estate and take a tour of the house and then one of the gardens. The gardens are magnificent and the detail contained within the tour was wonderful. Our guides were very good and knowledgeable. Online booking would be beneficial. If we had turned up and then found the tours full, it would have been very disappointing. All the other National Trust properties take online bookings!

Just so we clear, there is an entrance fee to the premise. Anyway, love the whole area! The trees, the lawn, the little benches 😩✨️Just perfect for picnic. It's also near Point Ormond (my fav place, no one asked, but yes)
