Mrs Yorks Garden — Attraction in Port Macquarie

I grew up in the centre of its thickest little canopy, it was salvation from the horrible and may I add.......... TRUANCY OFFICER'S ECT,,,,,,, MOSTLY MR GIBBS AND THE OL' TEACHER'S THAT GIVE ME CREDIT AND GO AFTER GO REGARDLESS TO MY DISRUPTIVE MANNER OF CLASSES,INNER SCHOOL SUSPENSIONS AS TO DISRUPT THE ENTIRE SCHOOL. I was in the middle of a midlife crisis by 13 where I escaped the horrible and have ever since returned to MRS YORKS GARDENS for same and similar circumstances however 35 yrs later at age 48 found a serene place in myself to keep on moving forward to where this SKATEBOARD TAKES ME. BACK TO PEPPERMINT PARK I PRESUME. FOR THE LOVE OF MY HOME TOWN N SURROUNDING.... DEFINITELY GODS COUNTRY. YEEEEEEEW. 2444...

A short walk near the Breakwall, worth a quick stopover. The gardens themselves were still developing but are beautiful, especially when you reach the waterfall and look out to views of the water. It's maintained by volunteers, the Friends of Mrs York, and you call tell they put a lot of heart and effort into the place. I was lucky to be there when they had a stall set up, with all the proceeds going to the gardens. A range of handmade crafts were on offer, I picked myself up some handmade lemon butter and passionfruit butter as well as a pen to remember...

One of our favorite little walks in Port Macquarie! Follow the path down from Clarence St, past the "waterfall"and along the wooden path to the hill top gardens, picnic tables and park benches to relax on and enjoy the ocean views! And remember to take the lower path down to Town Beach Park and Breakwall! A great circuit walk back...
