Merribee is situated on seven acres of landscaped gardens and has become a popular venue for country weddings and special events. Formerly old dairy pastureland, the area has been transformed into an ornate garden with numerous “botanical rooms”, including an Edible Garden, Apothecary Garden, the White “Walled” Wisteria Garden, Rose Gardens, a Lavender Paddock and more.
Merribee is open every Wednesday during spring, summer and autumn for garden tours, garden classes, nursery, produce and The Store – a tea house that serves refreshments, and a light lunch.
Merribee caters to bus groups, private and corporate functions for visits either on a Wednesday or another day by appointment.
