    Great place to spend a few hours, especially if the weather is nice. The grounds are very well maintained and there’s a wide variety of gardens, so it doesn’t feel repetitive. Good for walking with kids or just relaxing. Parking isn’t free, which feels a bit unnecessary, and it can get crowded on weekends. Overall still worth visiting.

    The gardens are gorgeous and my 5yr old actually enjoyed it more than I expected. Bring snacks though - the cafe is overpriced.
