We are so fortunate here to be nestled beautifully on the gentle slopes of the Lower Wye Valley.
It is therefore important to acknowledge that the whole garden is on a gradient.
IN THE SUMMER - the central part of the garden can be accessed relatively easily on the flat paths and level lawns but you do have to climb if you want to get to the top of the orchard.
IN THE WINTER some of the snowdrops can be viewed from these level paths but many of the snowdrop displays are at the top of the garden and in the Snowdrop wood which will require walking to as these areas are not really suitable for wheel chairs and the paths and lawns are most likely to be muddy and slippery in places at that time of the year.
Where there are areas of high foot fall, we will put down bark mulch but this is not to say that some areas wont get muddy. In the central part of the garden most of the pathways are on level gravel paths or level grass lawns
There are a number of seats around the garden and many wall to sit on around the pond.
If you have mobility issues or use a wheel chair and or a mobility scooter (well powered ones) and have decided that the garden will be suitable for you to visit then when you arrive please notify the parking attendant who can direct you towards a suitable parking place where you can gain the best access.
Unfortunately, the garden does not yet have a wheelchair friendly toilet due to space constraints in our studio.
We work constantly to improve paths so in time we hope that to be fully inclusive.
