everglades historic house and gardens印象

Our second visit to this hidden gem. Certainly different in every season, with different flowering times.One of Australia's garden treasures, with the grand vision of Van Der Velde and Sorenson creating a magical place to stroll around and explore. Make sure to give it time to find all the nooks and crannies in the various terraces. The historic house is fascinating, with its Art Deco features and amazing bathrooms. Lovely Devonshire teas from the volunteers. We spent several hours absorbing the ambience of the property. A wonderful place!

Beautiful garden and a fascinating summer house that shows how wealthy people could live not too long time ago. Interesting architecture that harmonizes well with the surrounding nature. Active bird life. A very friendly and helpsome gatekeeper let us in and gave us some background information. A hidden gem indeed.

I only came for my girlfriend, but I was pleasantly surprised at the gardens. There was a lot of colour, bird life and history throughout the gardens, and to cap it off was a lovely view of the blue mountains.Since we got there very early, we got to see some amazing birds, including a lyrebird which is usually quite skittish. If you like to take photos, definitely bring a zoom lens as the birds can be quite far away!

I saw the Leura Shakespeare festival here and it was amazing! Totally gorgeous and awe inspiring! I really want to go back and see more of it during the day! Even if you don't like Shakespeare, just go for the sheer beauty of it, especially at sunset - wow!

A tranquil antidote after the busy experience of the Blue Mountain sightseeing trips. Nice gardens, views, house and outdoor theatre.

I will come clean and say that I am a huge fan of all things deco so the house and garden were just delightful - or should I say 'the cats pajamas '. A wonderful place to visit if you like a beautiful garden stroll and to sigh over a deco house to dream of. Would love to see some more signs of deco life but still a lovely diversion from the also beautiful Blue Mountain vistas.

The gardens at Everglades was a wonderfully pleasant find! We explored it after watching an outdoor theater production, and found it reminded us of The Secret Garden. Make sure you take the time to walk around the grounds and enjoy a picnic!

An absolute delight to visit, whether you're just wandering around appreciating its beauty, or going there for a picnic. Flourishing gardens.

Some of my fondest childhood memories are of picnicking with my family at the Everglades Gardens in the leafy Blue Mountains village of Leura. Thirty years later and the gardens have lost none of their beauty and charm. The Everglades are worthy of a visit at any time of the year. They are particularly appealing in April when the numerous deciduous plantings display their striking autumnal colours.The tea rooms are located in the historic 1930s Everglades House and serve the traditional fare of Devonshire Tea and the like. If given the chance, I thoroughly recommend taking in a performance of the brilliant theatre company Sport for Jove, who use the delightful Everglades Garden Theatre each January during the Leura Shakespeare Festival.

Beautiful, tiered gardens, many sculptures & unique view points on your journey through to a lovely deco "summer house". Continue to bottom of garden & you're given a new range of views of the blue mountains, framed by the garden art. We chanced upon this garden, unaware what we were about to discover, but so glad we did!Would be worth seeing in all seasons, our rainy day activity was perfect!Need to pay entry fee, as property is National Trust, but make sure you allow the estate two hours to fully explore.
