With a perfectly framed view stretching across Te Koko-o-Kupe / Cloudy Bay, Paripuma has evolved over the last 20 years from a barren, windswept beachfront to a large native garden based on formal lines that provides a habitat for wildlife. With a beautiful perennial garden added to enhance that habitat, Paripuma is a Marlborough Environment Landscape Award winner.
Altimarloch Garden
Alastair and Jessica Midgley
Altimarloch is a charming property overlooking the Awatere River, that is evolving into an expansive arboretum. Established in 1856, it features a rambling country garden with original trees, a meandering creek and a tranquil lake. Under the care of Alastair and Jessica Midgley, hundreds of trees and a vibrant rhododendron terrace have enhanced the garden’s beauty and diversity.
Experience the magic of Barewood. Romance and structure set the stage, with cascading wisteria and rambling roses woven throughout. Wander the rooms of this lovingly crafted garden, with espaliered heritage fruit trees, a brick-pathed potager and cottage garden charm.
Winterhome’s ten acres of formal garden feature stunning views over the Marlborough coastline and Pacific Ocean. Explore world-class garden design that uses strong lines, intersecting axes and exceptional mass plantings; a memorable testament to the vision of its founders.
