Nice little garden with different colours of flowers. Had a beautiful sight of the waterfalls in the midst of the garden. Overall experience was good.

Wright's Water Garden has so much to offer! ? The waterfall is spectacular! You can hear it whispering when you enter. There various walkways. One leads to the top, where you can see the waterfall from the top, and also walkways to view from the bottom. As you get closer, the roar gets louder. There are chooks ?, alpacas ?, and a play area for the kids. The garden is definitely not pushchair friendly They have a lovely cafe on site which usually makes amazing breakfasts and lunches, but now cater for take away coffee β˜• cakes, and slices. There are many benches to sit on and enjoy it ? There are many statues to admire, and some to ponder. The flowers and plants are beautiful! ??? The only thing of putting is that nobody (including us) understood the map ? and many people ambled about aimlessly, and, like us, had to back track. ?‍♀️ There are also no clear signage. It does allow you to explore more, but it can be very tiring as there are steep hills, and many stairs

Hidden gem of an attraction in AK city limits.Tranquil watergardens, babbling brooks a high waterfall all of this in a treasure hunt like setting reminiscent of some of the Asian holiday hotspots. It also has a lovely cafe with both indoor and outdoor flow that serves great meals . Its sure to leave a memorable and enjoyable experience for the whole family.

Although it's a little run down, it's still a great walk with a very good cafe at the start or finish. Take your time, there are little gems hidden all over the place and it pays to keep your eyes open. There are plenty of places to sit and contemplate plus kids will like running around all the paths and gardens but keep an eye on them because water is dangerous stuff.

What a fabulous place. Cafe has dining in or outside casual under the trees and umbrellas plus a seperate child friendly area with playground. Menu has breakfast and lunch meals with full range of hot and cold delicious drinks and good range of alcohol plus a cabinet selection of cakes and homemade fudge The waterlily gardens are amazing, walkways meandering through lots of native and exotic plantings with a waterfall and lots of ponds and sculptures. Highly recommended

So glad we made the effort to go. A great day. Lovely coffee and gorgeous magic and raspberry slice. Very safe with contact less procedures. Sat outside.ΔΊovely to see kids and dogs interacting with the chooks. The gardens were a treat. Surreal photos of lotus flowers and waterlillies. A key is available for those with disability to get close otherwise steps and uneven ground would be a challenge. Thanks for caring about the gardens
