Last Saturday was my hubby’s birthday weekend so we celebrated it with his two sisters and brother in law and a friend. And as per usual I am posting this as response for a mix of challenges.
A lovely visit to Stamford Park Homestead, where history, beautiful gardens, and great food come together. Built in 1882, this beautifully restored Victorian homestead offers a glimpse into Knox’s past.

We started our visit with a relaxing meal at the charming restaurant where I had this wonderful tasting dish.

After lunch all six of us went for a perfect stroll on the peaceful gardens.

There are benches and also some outdoor seating which may be popular during the warmer months.


I saw flowers scattered around… Primula malacoides ‘White’, also known as Fairy Primrose, is a lovely plant with clusters of pure white flowers on tall, slender stems above soft green leaves. It flowers beautifully in the cooler months and adds a delicate touch to any garden.

And this is the wide front gate of the Homestead.


A nice way to celebrate, Teresa xx
One of many celebrations. Too tiring and fattening.
How lovely Teresa ❤️
Thanks so much Ange.
That looks like a wonderful place to celebrate, Teresa. The food (I love shrimp) is making me hungry, and the grounds look a delightful place to walk.
At first it was the place that lured us to going there. Now it is the food! Thanks Dan.
Lovely photos, Teresa. Looks and sounds like a wonderful birthday weekend for your hubby. 😊
Definitely is…lots of food and several catch ups. Thanks Pepper.
That looks like a lovely place for a family celebration 🙂
It was a great celebration, thanks.
I’ve never heard of that place Teresa, it looks wonderful, would you recommend it?
Yes, food is good with a wide variety. But it seems far from you.
Happy birthday to your Beloved. What a beautiful venue for a celebration! and such deliciousness!
Thanks Ju-Lyn. It was a wonderful celebration.
What a wonderful way to celebrate your husband, and your photos of the time are beautiful as always, Teresa!
Thanks a lot Brenda… so appreciate your comment.
