[Lisa ann Brown](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/115056877998500152561/reviews) ★★★★★

A breathtaking country park which I discovered on the way back from visiting Cannon Hall Farm. I took a leisurely stroll through the park during a sun drenched evening. I enjoyed seeing and hearing numerous birds and even spotted a deer. I shall definitely be returning with a picnic and to visit inside the museum. We have so many beautiful gems to discover in the uk. There are also some stunning statues situated throughout the park. And the waterfall running through the park is simply breathtaking.
