About this property

Wisteria Lodge | Mt Wilson | 24 Acres of Established Heritage Botanical Garden

Wisteria Lodge has a large outdoor fireplace and outdoor seating for 6. It also has an indoor fireplace, open plan living area with a kitchen, dining and lounge area, a modern bathroom and a comfortable King Size bed.

Located on 24 acres of historical Dennarque Estate gardens, which have been featured in local and international media, and regarded by many as the best cold climate garden in Australia.

The gardens were designed over 140 years ago by the then Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney director, Charles Moore. The Gardens still retain a large number of original plantings from late 1880s that were introduced from various countries around the world.

There are many rare species of maples, rhododendrons, camellias, dahlias and many other exotic and rare plants. A Japanese influenced garden has recently been added to Estate.

Rarely open to the public, the exotic cool climate gardens of Dennarque Estate are best experienced as in-house guests.

Simply Amazing
The place looks brand new, nothing like in the photos. Feels like an instant celebrity, staying in million dollar garden with hundred years of history. Thank you for opening such a gem for rental. Perfect place to escape the tourist crowd during autumn. Fully equip and well maintained private escape, fit for royalty.

About the host

Host profile image
Gardening and nature are two things that we love most. Our time spent at the Estate tending to the expansive gardens in the beautiful setting of Mt Wilson in the Blue Mountains is the ideal retirement project for us!

Why they chose this property

Mt Wilson is a beautiful small village set in the Blue Mountains. It is a perfect spot to embrace nature at its best, for a spot of retreat, and to get away from the hustle and bustle of the busy daily grind of the city. The rich basalt soil in the village creates a perfect environment for some stunning gardens in the area.

What makes this property unique

Dennarque Estate has a special place in Mt Wilson. The village of Mt Wilson was established in 1870s. Dennarque was built in 1879, being one of the original 6 houses that were built at the time. Dennarque is the only original 2 level sandstone establishment in the Village. The gardens were established in 1870s by Charles Moore from the Royal Sydney Botanical Gardens, with plants from around the world. Today, many original plantings remain in the garden. Dennarque Estate is the ideal base for exploring the Blue Mountains.
