Lush garden with trees, green grass, and dense foliage.

Botanic Gardens

Establish in the 1850’s by Andrew Sinclair, botanist and contemporary of Charles Darwin, The Pines gardens are one of the few remaining “great gardens” of Auckland. Cuttings from the Pines were sent back to Kew Gardens to establish their South Pacific Collection. Today, after over 150 years of culture and care, they are designated a “special ecological area” and are home to native flora and bird life.

Outdoor backyard pool area with a wooden dining table and chairs under a covered patio, surrounded by green bushes and trees.

Swimming Pool

Famous for having hosted Queen Elizabeth II on her honeymoon, the 20 metre long diving pool is a favourite for extended families in the warmer months, and for residents’  constitutional cold plunges in winter. A fully equipped  kitchen and barbecue area are poolside.

Empty tennis court with green surface, surrounded by a black chain-link fence, lush trees in the background, under a partly cloudy blue sky.
