Today we headed south to Whitford to visit Ayrlies Garden, the only garden in New Zealand considered to be of international significance.

The private garden is the work of a small team of gardeners and has been developed over the past 30 odd years. There are many pools and small waterfalls throughout the garden.

The views from the garden over the Hauraki Gulf and Rangitoto are stunning and there are many seating areas taking advantage of the views.
