The covers 10 acres, and was the creation of its prior owner, Roger Parr, and his head gardener, William Boulter. The adjoining house is used as a nursing home and is not open to the public. Great if you're a National Trust member, but to be honest, we don't think you would be too happy paying £8.50 for entry. Dogs are welcome. The ruins of a Roman temple possibly associated with a high-status Roman villa, which may have connections to the nearby Roman town of Magnis, lie inside the Weir by the Wye 😊, it was a nice morning through the though, a nice as well. Parking is right by the entrance. around the gardens. Not extensive but we visited after a flood period so it shortened the walk. Beautiful just the same. The his having extensive work done so should be wonderful for 2025. The sheep are very friendly. 😂 This is another great National Trust site. Situated along the Weir. There is free parking for mem6 otherwise non members have to pay for parking and entry. It is a good 45 minute around the bank gardens, with beautiful views of the river. There is also a play area and picnic tables for days when the weather is dry. We had a here, immersed in the wilderness look of the gardens. There is also a separate which needs another 20 minutes for a gentle look around. The volunteers are very friendly and knowledgeable. Only draw back is that it closes by 1630, which I assume is because volunteers can't stay till 7pm in the summer months. Absolutely stunning display of Spring flowers, and lots of places to sit and admire the view across the river. Another couple of hours here. Just a note to get down and back up to the riverside if you go down the steps is very steep. And don't forget to visit the before you leave. There are toiler facilities but no cafe incase you hoped for one. Got there when it opened so pretty much had the place to ourselves on a perfect autumn day. Great views, interesting plants and trees and even some Roman ruins! Also a with a greenhouse. Very tranquil place, right alongside the river. Stunning views across Herefordshire. Beautiful that frlt very natural. I took my elderly parents and there were a few paths that were difficult for them due to tree roots and not being wide enough or level. Didn't have the time to do the garden, we're saving it for the next visit. A good place for a short walk. Lost a star for the toilets. The paths have varying accessibility but all round worth a visit if passing by. An absolutely stunning place. This is one for all, including a dog! There is a respectable playground for young ones to enjoy alongside a trail of factual and fun information. The itself is beautiful, a place to have lunch and admire the views. There is a that allows you to take some fruit and veg via a donation. There is a steady amount of car park space, and the worker at the kiosk was informative and friendly. There is also a selection of books that are available to purchase for a cheap amount! A wonderful setting. I don’t mind paying money to the national trust to support their work but, but the gardens felt run down. There was a donation box for bird food in the bird hide (the feeders were empty). A slightly depressing experience Great places views the only bad things are signs are hard to see and nowhere to get a drink or snacks but they do have toilets dog on a hot day, wandered amongst large trees along the riverside. Sat on deckchairs overlooking the Wye and had a picnic. Very relaxing Nice little wander to have, not huge but beautiful and you can buy some local produce. that they have tried to incorporate things for the kids to so.
