The garden at Bronte has been featured in Australian and overseas publications and has been often featured on television, particularly on the popular Burke's Backyard show on Channel 9. Here are some comments on the garden:

"Bronte House is a triumph. Leo Schofield confronted the most difficult of problems in garden design, that is how to construct around an historic home a garden that is appropriate in the historical context and yet is also a garden of modern design. What Leo achieved at Bronte House in combining these two mutually antagonistic ideals is a masterpiece. Gardens are not like paintings or similar works of art in that they continually evolve. The garden at Bronte House is at the very nub of this issue. I offer my congratulations to Leo on an outstanding achievement. "
Don Burke

"In just six years Leo Schofield has rescued the garden at Bronte House from terminal boredom and created one of Australia's best new private gardens - quirky and original, intelligently planted, maintained to a high technical standard, and strongly bearing the stamp of its creator. With its trademark tropical foliage plants, flashes of brilliant colour and lushly planted borders, the garden at Bronte House well and truly loosens the stranglehold Murraya hedges and Iceberg roses have had on Sydney gardens."

"The garden at Bronte House excels in so many of the ways one might choose to judge a garden, but by my favourite criterion - to what extent does a garden express the personality of its creator - it achieves the extraordinary."
