Well worth a visit, such a beautiful place with an incredible diverse range of flaura and fauna from all corners of the world. It's not expensive at all and parking is free. Nice friendly staff. The cafe has some nice beverages and cakes etc all reasonably priced. The little robin appreciated some cake crumbs!

If you want a lovely few hours out and enjoy gardens this is a lovely spot. I took my boys who enjoyed the nature trails and peaking in the ponds. There’s a free car park on site and if you go on one of their donation days it’s great value. We’ll be back

Nice greenhouses + the gardens can be gorgeous in the summer. General admission is a little steep considering it is on the smaller side, however it is free for students.
