Staff and venue were very good. Provided excellent workshops pitched at the right level for our Year 2 children. They were able to work around our timings and allowed us to enter and leave the gardens by an alternative gate as we had arrived by train rather than coach. Facilities in the venue were great. (March 2023 - Primary School)




(November 2022)




The children were really inspored by the venue and the staff were friendly and helpful with activities that had been well thought through and were presented well. (July 2022 - Primary School)

(April 2022 - Primary School)




The gardens are a fantastic experience for the students as there is plenty o space for us to work and the greenhouses were open to draw tropical plants which we really appreciated, especially having missed the trip last year due to lockdown. Thank you. (November 2021 - Secondary School)




Friendly, well managed and safe environment. Lots of resources and venue beautifully maintained for ease of use. (October 2021 - Secondary School)

Fantastic experience and excellent work completed by students. Students gathered resources for their projects. (June 2019 - Secondary School)




We had a very informative observational walk around the garden with plenty of decent teaching materials available. There were clearly several other school groups there but it was well managed to that we didn't really clash with any other group. (June 2019 - Primary School)




Well organised programme and activities. Children really enjoyed using microscopes and finding out about tropical plants. (June 2019 - Primary School)




It is an excellent facility with amazing plants. (May 2019 - Primary School)

A superb facility to draw with a group of students. Safe and well managed. I would recommend hiring the garden room in case it rains. (June 2018 - Secondary School)




Lots to see and do, children were very engaged (May 2018 - Primary School)




(May 2018 - Primary School)




(May 2018 - Primary School)




Facilities in the Garden Room meant that the children were able to use separate toilets and have their lunch indoors. There was room to carry out a lesson if needed. We were met promptly and given clear instructions. Even though we did not have guided tours, the downloadable resources gave us plenty of information. (March 2018 - Primary School)




Excellent visit, enjoyed by all the children (February 2018 - Primary School)
