Fantastic day out. Lots of areas to explore, beautiful gardens. Good plant selection to buy. Good tea room with gluten free options. Dogs allowed on a lead, including in part of team room indoor seating section. Car park is a few minutes walk away and a little tricky to find but we found it.

Lovely gardens with ponds. It was just a bit too muddy when we visited in April. Improved paths, boardwalks, etc. would help access all areas of the gardens during wet weather.

Hard to find but well worth it. Stunning displays of Astilbes and magnificent Hydrangeas. Very quiet when we were there, but that's a good thing!
