Addenbrooke
★★★★
Addenbrooke is a romantic, botanically rich garden and boutique nursery located in Bombay, just south of Auckland. Nestled among mature trees and gently sloping lawns, this privately owned garden offers an inspiring experience that blends timeless planting with seasonal beauty and curated charm.
The gardens unfold across a series of informal rooms, connected by winding paths, hedges, and whimsical focal points. Visitors will discover an ever-evolving tapestry of perennials, shrubs, old-fashioned roses, herbs, and cottage garden favourites thoughtfully planted for year-round interest. From flowering borders brimming with echinacea, iris, anemone, and geum, to restful nooks shaded by hydrangeas and heritage trees, the garden invites exploration and stillness in equal measure.
Addenbrooke is also known for its focus on pollinator-friendly planting, vintage garden styling, and rare or unusual plants. A highlight for many is the on-site gift shop and artisan nursery, where plants featured in the garden are available for sale alongside botanical-inspired wares.
Beyond its natural beauty, Addenbrooke hosts seasonal workshops, garden open days, and group visits, offering an experience that combines gardening, creativity, and community. The garden is also a popular location for photography and small private events.
With a strong focus on sustainability, soil health, and heritage plants, Addenbrooke continues to evolve while remaining rooted in its vision: to inspire a love of gardening, celebrate the magic of plants, and offer a warm, welcoming space where nature and people connect.
