Incredible hidden jem with a remarkable collection of plants particularly Nepenthes. The outdoor display areas were pretty well maintained and interesting but the real value here is in the various glasshouses. Fantastic value too in that it's free! Would have liked to have seen a few more plants for sale given the variety of oddities in the glasshouses that looked ripe for splitting and propagating. Its a bit difficult to find and there's zero sign posting from the road but you come to an industrial estate and just keep going. Its worth hunting out though as the collection is well worth seeing.

This is a lovely garden. There are a variety of garden areas, all well maintained with plant labels for those of us who want to know details. The wildflower areas were lovely in early June with various orchids in flower. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Nice place. Map navigation was a bit confusing at the furthest walk path. But was a beautiful environment. Nice small family. But not something you would spend hours in.
