About the host
Hosted by Lata Moss
Gardening and nature are two things that we love most. Our time spent at the Estate tending to the expansive gardens in the beautiful setting of Mt Wilson in the Blue Mountains is the ideal retirement project for us!
Why they chose this property
Mt Wilson is a beautiful small village set in the Blue Mountains. It is a perfect spot to embrace nature at its best, for a spot of retreat, and to get away from the hustle and bustle of the busy daily grind of the city. The rich basalt soil in the village creates a perfect environment for some stunning gardens in the area.
What makes this property unique
Dennarque Estate has a special place in Mt Wilson. The village of Mt Wilson was established in 1870s. Dennarque was built in 1879, being one of the original 6 houses that were built at the time. Dennarque is the only original 2 level sandstone establishment in the Village. The gardens were established in 1870s by Charles Moore from the Royal Sydney Botanical Gardens, with plants from around the world. Today, many original plantings remain in the garden. Dennarque Estate is the ideal base for exploring the Blue Mountains.
