Newman's Nursery is set in the Foothills of the Adelaide hills in the North East. There is one word for it - Beautiful. Their setting is lush, green and beautifully landscaped. I was coming here when I was little and it was like being let loose in a secret garden. We would always end up playing in the cubby houses and running around the little paths into different areas of flora. You genuinely forget that this is a place of business, it is actually somewhere you visit with your mum, sister, nanna or girlfriends for a gorgeous tea, coffee or sunday breakfast in their 'Tapioca Cafe' - set in a perfectly themed cottage. You can even do high tea events here, which would be a unique and perfect idea for small groups for baby showers, birthdays or bridal showers. Newmans Nursery specialise in camellias and the staff are passionate and knowledgable. Just seconds up the road from the Gully hotel, but feels like miles from anywhere, this place is just the tops. read more

Myself and my mum came for a look through the nursery and decided to stay for brunch. We sat outside and found the views of the hills and surroundings stunning. The gardens surrounding the café are extremely well maintained and create a lovely environment. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food was simple, but nice. I had the scones with jam and cream with a soy latte, which was delightful. Mum liked her bacon and eggs. The nursery really is the star of the show, give yourself a good 30-45 minutes to browse, we found staff really helpful and knowledgeable. read more
