Why go

Great place to wander around on a sunny day, or to sit and have a picnic. Highlights include the Rock Garden; the 165-m-long herbaceous border, backed by a huge, century-old beech hedge, and the Palm House, the tallest of its kind in Britain. The Palm House reopened in October 2026 after a big restoration, and you can only see it on pre-booked tours. (However all the other glasshouses are closed for rebuilding, and a small section of the garden is only open at weekends.)
