This was us, having finally decided to book and get very excited as the time approached . The staff, food, garden, ambiance were just brilliant. It does not need more reviews to get this across , it is just a top, “bucket list” place to go. The Gardens, we were there at Daffodil season, are so refreshing in the “Wild Garden” planning of William Robinson and to just wander round is joyous. Talking to one of Gardeners was so revealing of the attention to detail to produce an all year round garden-visit experience. The whole hotel thing, from the personal greeting as we drove up to the hotel, to the professional manner of every staff member, to the food we had, a taste experience of awesome levels, and a room that could hardly be bettered with a corner view of the garden area, to the Dining Room with its glass fronting on to the garden itself , all made it just the experience you say afterwards” I am so glad we decided to go for it”. Yes it’s not cheap, it’s value for a lot of money to give lots of memories, and photo opportunities as well. Our last comment as we drove out was “ When can we return at another part of the year to see a different seasonal planting display”. JUST DO IT ,
