Established in 1818 and set on a gentle slope with wonderful vistas of the Derwent River are 13.5 hectares of peace and solitude. The gardens contain over 6500 species, including more than 400 Tasmanian plants. An interesting curiosity is the Arthur Wall near the main gate-once heated by fires to keep the frost from exotic species. The gardens are home to a succulent fuchsia house, herb garden, extensive conifer collection, and Chinese and Japanese gardens as well as a stunning conservatory and spectacular annual bed displays. Stay for lunch at the restaurant. Admission: Free.
