A wonderful place to visit. The grounds and wooded walks are delightful, with plenty to see. There's a great outdoor play area for kids with a large connect four set, building blocks to make towers, a play house, a basketball hoop, and more. All free of charge.
The shop inside is something else, it is completely charming and laid out like a mini indoor street. Many local artisans sell their wares, you'll be spoilt for choice!
It also has a plant nursery and garden which is at its very best in the Spring and Summer.

It is a true gem of a location, with something...

I am never one for writing reviews but I felt this needed to be said.
The food was lovely and the atmosphere was relaxing. The gift shops have an aesthetically pleasing layout and such beautiful items. The flowers and plants looked healthy and beautiful. The amount of love and care that goes into this place is incredible and it shows when you arrive.
Our server Russell was so sweet and kind! Definitely recommend the cafe especially if he’s working! It was refreshing to meet such a polite young man. We spoke about Marvel and how we both thoroughly enjoyed Iron Man 3. Definitely the highlight of my day.
I even gave him my raybans so he could look like Tony Stark.
Russell is Boyndie Visitor Centres very...
