Reviews
"Enjoyed our visit here very much. The house is amazing and the staff are friendly & very informative. Lots of safe parking spaces. Lovely gardens and parkland to walk around. It was great seeing the deer who are very tame and placid wandering around the park."
"Absolutely stunning place, beautiful house, lovely garden's. We saw some of the local dear too. Would definitely recommend. We had a national trust membership so we didn't have to pay to get in or in the gardens. Definitely going to go back and take a picnic next time. There is a gift shop and cafe which serves tea coffee etc"
"Lovely place to chill and relax, get away from 'it all', been quiet often over the years, gardens so peaceful, house is amazing. Don't always see the Dears (depends on weather I think) but when it's nice, they come really close. Nice cafe too. Yes, wheelchair friendly. NT People so nice."
"Went to see the Winter gardens. Little too early as all the snowdrops weren't out just yet. Even so if you're looking for inspiration for winter garden plants there's so many different varieties to see. Lovely food in the cafe for lunch so had to go back for coffee and cake in the afternoon. Well worth the walk around the deer park too."
"Lovely place to walk around. The gardens were fantastic, especially with all the Christmas bits to see. Would have been better to see it lit up but we attended during the day. The deer park was lovely to walk around too."
