Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A little out of the way but well worth taking the effort to get there. Lovely bush parkland with pleasant walks through delightful quiet garden areas. We did the Sculpture Garden walk but are planning to do many more in future visits. Definitely worth going back again and again - especially to sample the Garden Cafe home baked scones, which were up among the finest we have tasted anywhere! Yum....

Another humid day in Sunny Coast and we decided to visit the Garden. I knew nothing about it and whilst it is a little out of the way, it was so worth the trip. There are a couple of tracks to wander, one to the lagoon which is not too arduous and another that would that is a couple of kms and would require appropriate footwear. l particularly enjoyed the sculpture garden. I would encourage everyone to have a visit, take a picnic and watch out for bush turkeys.

We wandered around these beautiful and superbly maintained gardens, taking various trails, for just over an hour.
The paths are very easy walking. The tree species and the various sculptures were well signed.
Very peaceful and tranquil.

We did the Lagoon walk. There are other walks around the place.....so obviously another visit will happen! It was a nice place. possibly better signage when you enter so you can park where you want to walk. Would definitely go again, I think there is alot more to see. There are picnic tables in various places.

Definitely not the traditional here. Yes there is the formal bushland sculpture trail and the modern buildings with wonderful landscaping. The covered picnic areas were great for us to she.ter between showers and of course to have our lunch. Clean toilet blocks. But most most all it was the walking trails. Particularly enjoyed the longest trail the Creek walk. Will come back again in the Sping or Autumn.

This garden, though off the beaten path, is a place of beauty and solitude. The is a wide variety of native flora that inspires peace and serenity, complimented by several sculptures and othe features. It is a good place to go to get away from the rush of daily life and reflect!

This spot is a little bit of magic tucked away in a quiet place. There are numerous walks and one catering just for children. The Sculptured Garden is amazing with all the statues you can feel and enjoy except one. There are plenty of open lawn areas, a lagoon and shelter sheds. There are no BBQs. There are two sets of toilets. On a hot day the walk down to the fern garden is beautiful and cool. Some walks have wheelchair access. Brochures are available marking the walks and the gardens also have a website.

We saw the gardens sign whilst travelling South on the highway and decided to take a break.It is further off the highway than we anticipated but, Wow what a surprise to find this hidden treasure.The gardens are just beautiful ,lots of lovely walkways amongst tropical gardens with picnic areas dotted throughout. Lovely sculptures and arbours.Lots of parking we were towing a caravan and access was fine. Well worth the visit.

The botanic gardens are a hidden gem, following the signs from the Tanawha Tourist Drive leads you to a relaxing and inspiring garden which is set around natural bushland. There are a number of walks and gardens with open lawn areas for a BYO picnic.
The Bushland Sculpture Garden provided an opportunity to view and read about how the sculpture garden was developed and if you keep your eyes open you may even see a Koala. A place definitely worth going back to again to do one of the bushland walks.
