‘Stonehaven’
Stonehaven Stonehaven is a large country, woodland garden that has appeared on several TV gardening shows and featured in numerous books and magazines.

It has an extensive collection of specie Rhododendrons, Acer, Magnolia, Cornus and summer flowering shrubs. Herbaceous borders of old roses and perennials bring colour to the garden in summer.

Dry stone walling creates ‘a room’ effect in an otherwise flat garden. Colour schemes are carefully thought out to produce a tapestry of colour. Ponds and bog gardens add another dimension and along the edge of the banks, a collection of foliage and water loving plants grow.

Directions:
From Tinwald/Ashburton turn right onto Maronan Rd. Travel approx 21Kms, turn right onto Barnswood Rd. Cross inland Scenic Route 72 into Shepherds Bush Rd. Pass Stone church on right, continue 3Ks to ‘Stonehaven’ on right.
