Description

Gardens & Tearoom The garden is the former home of poet laureate C.J. Dennis who originally purchased the property in 1915. He spent many years here writing and the garden and it's inhabitants directly inspired his final book 'The Singing Garden' published in 1935. After C.J.'s death in 1938 the property was purchased as a weekend retreat by the parents of a young Frank Thring Jnr. Rumour has it Frank Thring Jnr. was not too fond of the property and although he inherited it on his Mother's passing, it was sold off and finally purchased by Jan and Vic in 1969.
