New Hope
New Hope 6 Glover Drive,, YassThis hilltop four-acre property with sweeping river-valley views has, in just four years, been transformed into an extensive and richly layered country garden. Hedges, arches, gazebos, seats, fountains and lawns frame cottage borders, ancient, old and modern rose walks, lavender banks, crabapple terraces, a grand dahlia field (in full bloom), woodland gardens, fruit, nut and berry orchards, cutflower and vegetable beds, and an antipodean retreat. The many rare plants and trees are labelled. There is so much to see and enjoy, it is well worth the short trip to the country – and if you like, bring a picnic or make a day of it with a visit to nearby Yass itself.
