We visited today and were enchanted with the variety and beauty of this garden. The guide is a plant lover and knows a lot about every plant growing on the site. If you love tropicals this is your place. The views are spectacular. What a great way to spend a couple of hours- this has to be seen if you enjoy gardening.

We spent a lovely afternoon at the Tower Estate, first touring the beautiful gardens with flowers and fruit trees -- avocado, mango, carambola -- and then the historic great house with lots of memorabilia from World Wars 1 and 2. Old photographs of the several generations of family. Very personal tour and interesting anecdotes by a family member. We also enjoyed afternoon tea on the veranda, a very pretty setting with cucumber sandwiches, chocolate and carrot cake muffins, and cake. The blue butterfly pea flower tea was tasty and pretty. If you are looking for a way to spend an afternoon that is not the typical beach holiday, this is a marvelous way to do it.

Great visit to lovely private garden. Visit by tour only. Our young guide was very knowledgeable and answered questions confidently. Our tour was interupted by one of those ' we dont normally have rain like this' rain storms so we took shelter under the veranda and we were treated to a short talk by Mr Renwick and had the pleasure of THE Mrs Renwick joining us too while we enjoyed a rum punch before the rain stopped and we continued our tour. Liked all the different areas of the garden and the display of all the different fruits grown, the weird and wonderful, we even got to try a piece of raw sugar cane.
