Hans Heysen was one of Australia's premier landscape artists and the tour of his home, his art studio, and his works was informative and uplifting. Volunteers led the tour and the opportunity to see where Hans and his family lived was enjoyable. Nora, Hans' daughter, an accomplished artist herself was well represented in the tour. It is a great way to spend a couple of hours. Book ahead to ensure your place on the tour.

Great guided tour provided by knowledgeable volunteer. Wonderful to learn about the artists Hans Heysen and his daughter Nora Heysen and explore their studios, the family home, gardens, history and more. Highly recommended.

Visited here with some friends and took the artist's walk. This walk is a bit over 4 kms of undulating terrain. You get a good insight into where the painter lived and worked. We'll be going back again to visit the home and the artist's studio.

This is a magnificent place to visit. What a talented and gifted man. His daughter was just as good. The history here is excellent. The views are beautiful. It's definitely worth the short drive to Verdun. I truly recommend to go here for the tour.

Lovely gardens and estate and interesting studio. However, although we paid for a self guided tour and nobody else was waiting, we were not told about the Artist's Walk nor given the map we discovered on leaving.
