Visiting...

Garden & nursery Maple Glen is now only open one weekend a month over Summer. Open weekends: December 28th & 29th, January 25th & 26th, February 22nd & 23rd, March 29th & 30th. Group bookings outside these hours may be possible by prior arrangement at our discretion. Email enquiries (at) mapleglen (dot) co (dot) nz Entry is by donation. Tour groups $15 per head. Weddings As of February 2014 we no longer allow weddings in the garden. We are happy to recomend a number of other Southland gardens that offer a wedding service, among them the Hawthorn Gardens and the Lignite pit. Picnics As of January 2015 and due to the poor behaviour of a small number of visitors all picnics must be had in the parking area. No food or drink is to be taken into the garden. Children must be supervised at all times, this means keeping them within sight - and within reach for under 5's. We do not want a child to drown here. PLEASE no dogs, no barbecues, no litter bugs. Please supervise your children as the garden can be damaged, the swans may be aggressive when nesting and some of the ponds are very deep. Some paths may be slippery when wet. Please take care. Maple Glen is not a public park, it is a private garden and our home - we do appreciate your consideration. - Muriel & Bob, Rob & Kimmy.
