GARDENS
The 10 acres of elaborate Victoria gardens that surround the Mansion Hotel & Spa are run and managed by Parks Victoria, staff and volunteers.
In keeping with the ornate nature of the Mansion, the Chirnside family created equally stunning open gardens in Victoria in a distinctly European style.
The 10 acres of manicured landscape contains a variety of exotic species combined with Australian natives, a result of the Chirnside family’s association with the Acclimatisation Society, which was responsible for introducing several European flora and fauna species to the Australian Landscape.
These majestic Werribee gardens feature a colourful parterre, ornamental lake and grotto, glasshouses, heritage listed trees and expansive lawns.
The gardens have been designed to maximise feature plants and trees throughout the seasons. The stunning parterre has two flowering displays, in Summer/Autumn and Winter/Spring, while the grotto comes to life in Summer with it's flowering groundcover in full bloom.
