A-Maze-ing place! Very pretty place to spend a couple of hours. The snack bar does some lovely and unusual homemade cakes. The staff around the grounds are friendly and helpful, with lots of great advice for gardeners! I found out a lot about bamboo and will be growing some clumping varieties! And then there is the maze! Allow a bit of extra time, it's not as easy as you may think! Good value for the entry price.

I took my mum for her birthday in June, we found it to be a beautiful place to spend a few hours. Your enjoyment of the visit could possibly be down to your perspective and the timing of which flowers are in bloom. We timed it perfectly to see the particulary beautiful Peonies that grow in the kitchen garden and giant Allium. The Wisteria and some of the roses look and smell absolutely stunning. The whole place is a feast for your senses. Maybe it was slightly out of season as the coffee shop or Hall wasn't open and the gift shop had limited stock which was a shame. On the plus side they did have a little pop up box cafe which was fab. Here you can get a, cream tea, coffee or slice of cake and maybe a sandwich. There is a fair size Yew maze which was good fun, some absolutely amazing trees and the volunteers we spoke to were really pleasant. I definitely recommend a visit with company or you could quite comfortably go alone.
