Delightful day out Very beautiful. Well laid out - lots to see and experience.
School holiday time so very crowded. But not so much after you were through the gates.
Good smooth path for the less abled that enabled you to see a lot of the gardens from water features to plants and different gardens.
Easy to explore and maze was well managed and challenging but definitely doable.
Able to take a picnic or eat back at the entrance. Meal at the restaurant was good.

I was amazed with the size and magnificent view.
Had a night in then tent and it was an unforgettable experience. Though it was still very cold with very close to 0 degree, the quilt and bed provided was warm enough.
The dinner we had was very nice. The staff, the taste and environment were just 10/10.
Love to come back again.

Delightful gardens We “glamped”. All the provisions i.e tent, bed, dooner, towels etc were absolutely fine. Unfortunately the proprietors have no control of course over who stays at the facility. It did not make for a good nights sleep when he in the neighbouring tent was a loud snorer from late evening through to near sun rise. An interesting, once in my lifetime experience.
That aside, the gardens are truly enjoyable and we did enjoy their beauty.

Definitely worth a visit!
Went here when first open, and enjoyed it. Have also been to care for lunch on occasion.
Have been to a number of gardens both overseas and in Australia.
This would rate with any I have seen now. It is a long walk with some areas closed and being upgraded. But still takes a considerable time to see and appreciate everything.
Definitely worth doing in 2 stages. View the water garden, go and have lunch, and make sure you do the other areas after lunch. Also be sure to take water with you.

It is a spectacular 65 hectare private garden that is open to the public. It is considered to be one of the the largest and most spectacular cool climate gardens in the Southern Hemisphere. It has sprawling gardens, maze, chapel, stumpery, aviary, garden rooms and every other feature across the garden. Popular place, need to go early to avoid the heat as well. Fair bit of walking around, some under shade. Uneven terrain, lot of walking on paved pathways mostly. Popular with tourists and locals. You can spend several hours here depending on your interests. Wear comfy shoes, take water, wear hat, sunscreen. Toilets available. Restaurant available at main entry/exit point. Beautiful place. Lots to see. Parking is easy at off peak times. Great place for photography. You can book ready installed tents for overnight stays.

A beautifully created garden complimented by perfect surrounds and amenities. Supported by generous vehicle access and parking. A truly delightful day out for the whole family seeking an inspirational outing.

A huge and stunning garden. Being spring, many plants were in bloom. Some beautiful flowers.

Mayfield is enormous with a very diverse range of plants life. So many different water features , stone constructions and architectural aspects.

Plan to spend at least 3 hours to have a good look around.

Lots of places to take a a seat and have a picnic lunch or throw a rug down and enjoy the sun, sights and sounds on the many lawns.

Entry fee may seem high but you can see where the money goes. Lots of staff and the upkeep must be enormous.

The cafe looks good, but we brought our own food and drink.

The staff were friendly and helpful.

An exceptional garden that continues to be added to.

Go visit the gardens!!! Beautiful Had the best day, weather was fine sunny and warm. Took my dog. The grounds were spectacular, magnificent!! I’ve raved about this place. I had such a lovely time, and so glad it was pet friendly. I can see myself returning again.

Lovely cool climate garden. Will be spectacular a little later in the spring, and stunning during autumn. Cafe on site, staff friendly and helpful. We had a shared cheese/ meat platter for lunch, very filling. We visited during the week, and it was quite busy, would be extra busy on weekends and during holidays. Will be back to check it out during different seasons 💐🪻🍁🍂

Absolutely stunning gardens with breathtaking views all year round. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with so much to explore – from the formal gardens and hidden pathways to the water features and the lake. It’s a peaceful and relaxing place, perfect for a day out with family or friends.

A place where heaven meets.

There was a lovely woman and a kind man at the café—maybe the owners or staff—and both were super friendly and welcoming. I asked for my coffee to be really hot, and they nailed it! (Not everyone gets that right.) The atmosphere was so cozy and peaceful. We spent around two hours walking in the garden, and had a great time with the kids. Thank you so much for your genuine kindness and warm smiles. ☺️ I absolutely recommend this place!

Don’t care about all the negative reviews. It was well worth it. Even though it was winter, cold and drizzling rain, the views, gardens, and the meticulous eye for details was incredible. Not overly accessible for wheelchairs, motor ones would be good. Apart from that the photography was excellent. Well worth 3-4 hours wounding around. Lots of steps, and each section is hidden, so you have to go hunting. Even though the copper tree is right out of the way, well worth finding. Enjoyed all of it. The staff were extremely busy and very helpful. Top job.

Strategic planning and location.Not too crowded. Can visit from 9 am to 3 pm, The view was amazing.
We really enjoyed the view , Cool weather;Amazing and humbled staff . looking forward to coming back again'

Amazing well kept grounds. The autumn colours were gorgeous! The different sections made wandering around interesting. Although a bit pricey for entry to a garden, I can understand how expensive it would be to maintain such a place. I would love to see the garden again in springtime.

A very wonderful place to visit. We went there Autumn season. The weather was perfect and the plants are vibrant. I suggest coming early to secure parking. We were not able to do the maze simply because we have a pram and a 2 year old with us. Nonetheless, the experience was worthwhile.

I’ve been here 2 times now! What I always love about this garden is how big it is and how pretty all of the colourful trees. Would recommend to come during normal weekdays. ‘cause last year when I came, it was super busy because of school holiday (you won’t be able to take picture freely).
I would also recommend to come earlier in the morning so you can really enjoy the entire place (follow the map!). Bring your own food and picnic mat as well!

This place is beautiful and HUGE. Lovely garden and grounds. We had fun in the maze and enjoyed discovering sculptures, animals and lovely views around every corner. It really is a huge place. I didn’t really come prepared as honestly thought my 12yo son would be bored but he loved it. I’d recommend bringing water and snacks or even a picnic lunch to enjoy on the grounds. You could easily spend 2-3 hours exploring. We didn’t eat at the cafe onsite but it smelt amazing.

This was my second visit to Mayfield Garden in Oberon, and once again, I was absolutely mesmerised. We visited during autumn, and the colours were simply breathtaking—the vibrant reds, oranges, and golds made the whole garden feel like a living painting. Despite this being my second time, it still felt fresh and enchanting.

My family felt the same way—completely in awe of the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. Every path invites you to slow down and take it all in. Mayfield truly has a way of making you want to come back again and again. An unforgettable experience, and we can’t wait to return!

The most spectacular gardens I have ever seen We've just returned from our first visit to Mayfield Garden and it definitely won't be our last visit! We thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful attraction and are in awe of the meticulous planning that has gone into creating these wonderful gardens.

I could go on forever, but I'll just mention some highlights - our favourite would have to be the maze (we actually walked to the end of the property and pretty much started at the maze); the water gardens with water lilies; the gorgeous big lake; all the bridges and grottos scattered throughout and too many other things to name.

We have decided we need to go back - we'd like to try glamping onsite (it was all booked out this time) and spread our visit out over 2 days, to maximise the experience.

Oberon Weekend We spent the weekend in Oberon and paid our second visit to Mayfield Gardens . our first visit was about 10 years ago when we were a lot younger and fitter 🤣🤣
The weather was perfect and the autumn colours magnificent .. we had a wonderful day but the gardens are challenging for older people.
One of the paths is advertised as mobility friendly but it isn’t there is a long walk over gravel to reach it but it is hard to find and the map is confusing .
Better signage would help and some form of a cart to drive around the gardens would be a bonus for older people.
We managed seeing everything we wanted to see and rewarded ourselves with a Prosecco and a beer in the covered area near the cafe.
Our lunch before the walk was delicious . prompt and friendly service .
Entry fees are expensive.

Garden gem It was a bit of a detour but well worth it. A great cafe /restaurant is at the entry. It has a small menu all of which is seasonal and delicious. The gardens are extensive and beautiful, making for a relaxing and refreshing stroll.

Glamping Dirty, noisy and very poor value Garden’s sensational but glamping very dissatisfying especially given the cost $475 per night. Tents wet, dirty and smelly , mould 10cm from your pillow - see pictures Tents so close together that absolutely no privacy or sleep. No cancellation means paying a second night/ normally you would get a refund if your hotel was this dirty.. Save your money and stay elsewhere- . If a motel charging this was this unclean you would leave.second night fellow guests even worse than first running throughout gardens screaming and partying until 2:30 am. Would never stay again.Bitterly disappointed as it was supposed to be a treat away.
