    It was the second time we've been here. The first time was in late summer. It was hot and dry and understandably the flowers weren't at their best, so it was truly lovely to return in the spring and see all the flowers in their first bloom. As always the route through the gardens is well thought out and sign-posted. It's a gentle amble of around 2 - 2.5 hours with gorgeous scenery, beautiful flowers and alternating light and shade. The various sections are each as delightful as the last. The staff are always friendly and helpful and the little garden shop is well stocked with the beautiful plants and bushes you'll have seen on your tour. We purchased a couple of soft-drinks on our way out as we had built up a thirst in the warmth, and they weren't expensive. If I were to have one complaint, it's that they don't name any of the flowers. My MIL spent an ungodly amount of time on her phone trying to identify various species of flower and bush. But I would definitely recommend this as a lovely gentle day out if you like plants and flowers.

    An amazing garden which has been created from scratch over the past thirty years. It has a huge variety of plants and settings including lots of water features, quite a few woodland spaces, Mediterranean planting, oriental features and rose gardens. The flowers were in full bloom when we visited in July and looked stunning. It has a fun bamboo maze and a small selection of goats and lamas!

    Amazing jardin ! I had a really good experience. Everything was pretty and calm, especially around the temple there was a music with the flute that i enjoyed soooo much, i want to listen to it again but i need the name of the music.
