The grounds are stunningly beautiful and incredibly well-maintained. The absolute highlight of our visit was seeing the gorgeous deer and stags roaming around. We went for a 4-hour walk, and it was pure pleasure from start to finish. A perfect place to relax, connect with nature, and spend quality time with loved ones. Highly recommended! · via Google [Jo Corlis](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117243125081814702288/reviews) ★★★★★ Beautiful place, nice little tea room and lovely area outside to sit and picnic if you like. Lovely walk around the park and gardens though the walk to castle ruins is slightly uphill and for those of us with bad knees or hips may be a little challenging !! However there is a cute little buggy service at the entrance that will take you too and from the ruins through the woodland. This is a great addition so everyone can enjoy the entire area no matter your physical ability. Lots of wildlife, cows, sheep, lambs,pheasants, blue tit's, chaffinch, crows, Robins etc etc. Well worth a visit. · via Google [Abigail Peckett](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104637556711043785117/reviews) ★★★★★ Lovely visit with family. Beautiful gardens and grounds to stroll round at leisure with a well stocked cafe and great playground area too. Parking was easy and copious and all the staff were friendly and helpful. · via Google [Simon Jones](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/100895266786326043655/reviews) ★★★★★ This is a beautiful estate, with lovely gardens and woodland to explore. There is a castle ruin on the estate that adds to the folly of visiting the gardens. A worth while location to visit for any intrepid explorer. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x48797b6b312d0d45:0x12ae1ef4521885e5!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this destination features beautiful, well-maintained gardens, expansive parkland for walks, and a charming mock castle with impressive views.
