Excellent botanic gardens with a unique microclimate that sets them apart. Different environments from around the world have been faithfully recreated, including an immersive Australian rainforest, hydrangea walk, striking Japanese garden and a unique tropical rainforest greenhouse. A bonus is that red squirrels are thriving in the gardens, and we saw several in the trees during our visit - an unforgettable moment. We also saw a colourful Wall Lizard, not typically seen in the UK. Paths around the site are well surfaced, making for an easy walk, and everything is well maintained and presented. Facilities include ample on-site parking be sure to register your vehicle on arrival, a café, and shop with a wide range of plants for sale. At the time of my visit, tickets seemed good value at £11.50; the gardens easily exceeded my expectations.
Good value visit for how long you are likely to spend here! Lovely variety of plants and flowers and an ideal spot for some photography, keen eyes will spot many different insects thriving in the plant life! Such a relaxing, sensory experience with the nearby sea breeze, rustling of leaves, buzzing of bumblebees and bright colours everywhere around you. It was great to just disconnect and get lost in the natural environment for a couple hours.
Stunning gardens a joy to walk through all the areas. Lots of seating dotted around for rest and to enjoy the scenery. A lively little cafe, shop and plant stall of which I purchased the most gorgeous vanilla nemesis . I didn't go into the hot house but apparently it wasn't too good sadly . I even saw a lizard enjoying the sun . Fabulous
We visited with a disabled child, lift was out of order. Found the paths very difficult to manage with the special buggy. Couldn’t access the view point because of this and never found the beach. Paid £28 for a family ticket to sit at the park for an hour! Staff not friendly or helpful. Didn’t inform us of the inaccessible pathways before we paid even thou I said I have a disable child! And didn’t point us in any right directions. Other than that the gardens looked lovely and well kept. Wouldn’t recommend for disabled visitors.
What a delight to see an abundance of red squirrels! The park itself was medium friendly to disabled people, plenty of places to rest but the access is occasionally difficult. Cafe was nice, you can sit outside on a terrace above the greenery. EV charging is an absolute rip off, don't waste your time plugging in. 72p/kWh, this is set by the venue. Voltshare app if you're insistent.
Absolutely stunning garden with its own unique micro climate. Not too large and easily accessible. Plenty benches dotted around. Ample parking. Well worth a visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
We could *easily* have spent a whole day here. Even in October there was so much to see, including red squirrels. There was an excellent art exhibition in one of the rooms. I don’t say this lightly; the BEST cup of tea on the island.
We really enjoyed walking round the gardens with a wide variety of subtropical plants which you don't normally see outside in England. Food in the cafe was nice too.
Even as a non-Gardner I really enjoyed this. An oasis of exotic plants in a sunny microclimate, makes you feel like you are on the other side of the world. The little green lizards everywhere, add to the exotic experience. I would recommend getting a free tour as the guide was extremely knowledgeable and really brought the history and variety of plants to life. Nice cafe as well.
Very well set out , way better than many "Big Name" Gardens . Prepare for a lot of surprises , take your time , take a picnic make a full day of it .Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
