Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Our Wanderings | E&JCambridge, UK88 contributionsWe visited the animal sanctuary as part of our day excursion to the Yarra Valley. The sanctuary is a good size and splits into 3 main areas which you can explore. There is plentiful to see and all the animals are native to Australia. We particularly liked the animal hospital where you can watch the vets perform procedures on their rescue animals. One thing to keep in mind is that there is not much cover between the trails, so keep that in mind if you’re visiting on a rainy day. There is also not too many food options so maybe consider bringing your own meal and snacks particularly if you’re in a big group as the food is a bit pricey.Written 19 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kurt RPittsburgh, PA695 contributionsWe had a wonderful tasting inside before taking some bottles outside to enjoy while overlooking the vineyards. A lovely way to spend an afternoon.
The staff were welcoming and helpful, and we enjoyed the wine and snacks we ordered.

- TravellerMelbourne, Australia15,802 contributionsMy wife and I visited this place a few days ago, as part of our holiday in Mount Dandenong where we stayed for two nights in a holiday cottage.
This was our second visit, as we were here two years ago. We enjoyed our previous visit so much that we wanted to visit again.
The collection of plants and the design of the Gardens are magnificent. We were here at 10 am on a Wednesday morning when it was not crowded, which made it more pleasant for walking across the whole place.Written 26 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We had such a wonderful coffee and cake and upon talking to the lovely Michelle decided to walk through the gardens. Michelle was so helpful giving map and making note of where seats were for my elderly mother. Gardens were beautiful and so much work involved. Quite a few noticeably burnt from the hot spell Melbourne has recently endured but nevertheless gardens amazing.Written 19 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Natalia TSingapore, Singapore2,308 contributionsI did the trail from Warburton to Milgrove and slightly beyond. Very easy flat trail. Very pleasant for an easy walk especially when the weather is nice. Some lovely trees along the way. Past Milgrove, it was more open areas, and less shady.Written 2 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
