Cafe and a walk to the Chapel is good too. Very relaxing atmosphere without even a hint of traffic or aviation noise. Great for photos too. It's easy to walk through the gardens following the map they give you so impossible to get lost. A few gentle slopes but nothing too difficult. · via Google [Cherry Cheeks (Roberta)](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/103354827297540581561/reviews) ★★★★★ Came on 2 for 1 Gardener's World ticket.
