点评:This is a private garden which we visited in early autumn. It's not your traditional "country garden"; if you're looking for immaculately manicured borders this will not be the place for you. Their website will show you what to expect.... it's not just about (or even about) the plants but the textures, colours, reflections and some very striking hedges. Above all I liked the many subtle links to the history of the site. The car park is small and the owners recommend arriving later in the afternoon if you want to be sure of a place; it was almost full when we arrived (about 2.30 pm) but half-empty an hour later. There's no tea room or plant sales area but there is a loo and, when we visited, free apples! It'll only take you an hour or so to wander around this place so can easily be combined with another visit (perhaps to the nearby Tintern Abbey) on the same day. We visit a lot of gardens and this is one that we'll remember... I look forward to retuning at different times of the year.
