It's been many years since I last visited these gardens. I have no idea why I left it so long. It is such a peaceful, pretty garden. We enjoyed a tasty lunch on a sunny patio. Worth a visit.

Loved this garden. An all round great day: cafe was good, river side walk with lake view and particularly the gardens. There was a great mixture of different areas from walled veg garden to wisteria walk and lovely views from the tower. Staff were friendly and happy to chat.

Amazing gardens and landscaping. The maze and secret tunnel to the sunken garden/waterfall is brilliant. Lots of walks and modern cafe. Well worth a visit and not too expensive.

Beautiful gardens and a fun little maze. Enjoyed the walks and cafe! £12 entry fee may be ever so slightly over budget for many, so perhaps worth saving a few quid by pre-booking online. I will absolutely need to return next month to experience the Wisteria

This place is amazing. Gardens are beautiful. There is plenty of attractions for kids, like maize, playground or walk under waterfall. We been there during Easter time and enjoy Easter hunt which was well prepared. Highly recommended for anyone who loves nature, open space and flowers 💐.
