Came on a hot scorching summer day and it was full on hydrangea season. No camellias in bloom but the other flowers more than made up for this. The garden is vast and so obviously curated for IG stories and TikTok. That said, not knowing what to expect I was delighted by the whole experience. Your garden loving uncle or aunty heart will be happy.

It’s a great spot for photos—there are so many picturesque areas to snap...
