Mona Vale
63 Fendalton Rd, Riccarton, Christchurch, New ZealandTel: +64 (0)3 348 9660
The old homestead and beautiful English-style gardens of Mona Vale, not far from the city centre, are a special part of Christchurch. The once privately-owned property was first landscaped and developed at the end of the 19th century, and further extended and developed over the following 60 years. Eventually bought by the city in 1967, the delightful five-and-a-half hectares of gardens and landscaped lawns are situated alongside the Avon River (Otakaro), with a rose garden, bath house, fernery and a marquee lawn. Garden tours and punting (including a picnic lunch) are available. The architectural features of the old homestead, now a restaurant, can also be admired. Sit and enjoy the gardens, while enjoying lunch, morning or afternoon tea.
Garden Tours: November-April (by arrangement): 11am-1.30pm NZD13.50 per person; tour and Devonshire tea NZD22.50; tour and lunch NZD40.
Punting: October-April NZD15 per person; including lunch NZD55
