A wonderful walled garden, immaculately kept. If you only have time to visit one garden on the island it has to be this one. And not a ripoff price to visit like some others.

Visited on Friday – best guides/stewards of anywhere I've been. The whole experience was excellent. I usually avoid headsets like the plague so it was wonderful to be offered a “headset” free machine. The only mild downside was the lack of refreshment facilities – but we survived. Thank you all at your beautiful property.

Very interesting audio tour of the house with good history and level of information. Note it's best to book in advance as places are limited and at fixed times on only some days and months of the year.

This was my favourite historic site during our IoW visit. Despite a windy, rainy afternoon the walled garden was lovely. We booked a tour of the house. The audio guide was surprisingly good, informative with just the right amount of detail.

“Our second visit and looking forward to our third! Updated cottage is excellent. Loved the wood stove. Nothing is missing. Lovely bacon and eggs for breakfast. Delicious bread and butter too. All good.”
