We visited early October, and so, while there were flowers, the blossoms were not at their peak. Also, it was a little early in the autumn colour season, and so the leaves had just started turning. BUT, we had a fantastic visit nonetheless! The Acadian cottage is quite charming, the main garden spaces were still green and meticulously maintained, with a few blossoms still popping. For us, we were most impressed by their garden innovation section, where we learned about several techniques that we could use in our own garden. Their statue collection in the garden was also amazing. Staff were pleasant and helpful, and we would say this is a must-see, extremely highly recommended attraction for this fabulous part of Nova Scotia.

Tangled Garden

Reviewed By AnyDirectionUChoose - Halifax, Canada

This is such a cute little spot. If you've never been I would highly recommend a visit. It may be small but the gardens are so pretty. Just take your time and stroll through the grounds on a nice day. Very pretty. Not only that but the jams and liquors are wonderful. You can sample many before you buy which is an added bonus. Their products make fabulous gifts.
