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.

We had seen the gardens in all their glory in Spring time but it is also beautiful in autumn.
The coloured leaves highlight the park and the rotunda.
Though it is only a small park it is quite popular being located in the middle of Moss Vale shopping precinct.

My husband and I got married in the lovely Leighton Gardens. We chose it as it is one of our local gardens and one of the most prettiest gardens in the Highlands. We had many beautiful photos taken in the gardens on our wedding day 12.12.12, it was lovely for our guests and visitors from interstate.

These central Moss Vale gardens adjacent to the main Sydney - Melbourne railway line are neat as a pin and complemented by the historic adjacent railway station.
The gardens have shady spots ideal for a warmer spring or summer's day.

A great park for a picnic, or just a laze. Moss Vale has a beautiful main street. It would be great if this area could be used for the Farmers Market!

The traffic around there is horrendous so it’s easy to miss.
Pity because that little piece of park contributes a lot to Moss Vale. In spring it does a tulip display at least as good as Bowral, if not better. And you can see it for free. In autumn it does the buskers festival, a better, more entertaining Sunday afternoon can’t be found anywhere. Then there’s the big cannon from the KannonKing of Essen.Next to the railway station, opposite a pub.
Do yourself a favour, pull over and relax a few minutes in Leighton Gardens.

Had lunch in the park the last week. The tulip display was just starting to die off, but still looked lovely. And it was free to see, without the crush of people at Bowral!
