Visited here en route to a short break in mount wolseley. The kids did the chocolate mould making. They all really enjoyed it. We also had various drinks and some mini chocolate fountains with strawberries and marshmallows. Everyone loved those and my 12 year old has told me that the white hot chocolate she had was the best she ever had (and she’s tried lots!) so that’s a real compliment. This is a family business. Everyone we met was very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend it to anyone visiting this area

I visited the Arboretum last week and I have to say it was absolutely beautiful. It is obvious that years of work and planning has gone into this establishment. It is very customer friendly and the service is excellent. The selection is stock is brilliant. I had meal in the restaurant and really enjoyed it. The Arboretum is well worth a visit.

We brought our 4 year old twins to Rathwood yesterday to see Santa and from start to finish the entire experience was magical. The twins absolutely loved it. We weren't sure what to expect this year due to restrictions but they thought of everything. It was perfect.
