The garden space in the centre of Hostrups Have consists of lawns, old solitaire trees and perennial flower beds.

Artworks include the sculpture "Hvilende Kvinde" (Resting Woman) from 1937 by Danish artist Gunnar Hammerich.

Another sculpture depicts the Danish actor Poul Reumert as "lieutenant von Buddinge" in Hostrup's play Genboerne.
