Glenfalloch Woodland Garden, Gaelic for ‘hidden valley’ is an historical garden – tranquil, beautiful, much loved and treasured by visitors. Glenfalloch is a garden of four seasons. Magnificent English Beech, Oak, Ash, Walnut, Elm and Horse Chestnut trees complement the indigenous New Zealand native ferns, Kowhai, Rimu, Pohutakawa and Cordylines planted to advantage by the original owner. The aging dry stone walls accentuate the garden structure in artfully arranged beds, maximizing seasonal colour combinations, form and texture. Spring at Glenfalloch is spectacularly impressive. Tulips, Daffodils, Rhododendrons, Azaleas and Japanese Flowering Cherries dominate, with drifts of English Bluebells, Snowdrops, Primula Candelabra and wild Primroses around every corner. Summer presents an enchanting collection of flowers and foliage. Hostas, Penstemons, Hollyhocks, Lavender, Gunnera, and a Heritage Rose Garden accompanied by the constant whisper of the Windflowers welcome busloads to this unique magical wonderland. Autumn and winter is a leafy tapestry of colour, brilliant reds, orange, yellow and bronze boldly provided by numerous varieties of Maples, Birch, Rowan trees and an extensive collection of Fuchsias thrive in a unique micro-climate. The original Homestead and fountain stand proud at the top of the sweeping lawn where the driveway swirls up and around the front ‘Alfred Buxton’ style. Treasures in this garden are aplenty, many with a story to tell. The mighty 1,000 Matai tree standing quietly in the upper gardens mimics the ‘Faraway Tree’ complete with Tui, Bellbird, Fantail and warbler birdsong. Along pathways, ivy and moss are nurtured between bricks and stones, adding further charm to this Woodland Garden. The premises consist of a stylish restaurant/function venue seating up to 130 people, with room on the huge deck, back courtyard and lawns to expand and host many more guests, on-site parking and access to the Trust’s facilities enhance the operational capabilities. Glenfalloch is a cherished property in the heart of Otago Peninsula. Otago Peninsula Trust is New Zealand’s first private charitable conservation trust established in 1967, an ecotourism pioneer with a mission ‘To preserve and enhance Otago Peninsula’.

Beautiful setting and great food and drinks. Walk around the garden afterwards, it's a lovely spot. Get there via the walkway from Macandrew Bay (15 to 20 minute walk) or a 2 minute drive.
