There are also pleasant Gardens to enjoy include the fragrant Victorian Flower Garden, the informal Wilderness Garden, dating back to the 1770s, the Victorian Kitchen Garden and Mill Pond Walk
There are plenty of places to get food and drink both in the gardens and on the rally field. All this and the largest Jaguar Rally in the South should make for a great day for all.
