After seeing the Brown Tourist Signpost, whilst en-route to our holiday, we had a delightful, unplanned visit to the beautiful Westbury Court Gardens. This immaculate National Trust property with a Lovely Dutch style water-garden is well worth a visit. There is a car park adjacent to the property.We were amazed to learn that there is only 1 full-time gardener and 2 part-time volunteers looking after this immaculate site - how do they do it? The vegetable patches and fruit trees are all well laid out, there is a huge 400+ year-old oak tree and plenty of relaxing picnic spots.There is only one toilet and no catering facilities; however there is a kiosk where drinks and snacks are available. This tranquil and inspiration garden is perfect for a picnic.

During a week of heavy rain we managed to find the perfect gap of sunny spells to visit this beautiful Dutch influenced gardens. Well worth an hour to stroll along the canals and enjoy the tailored lawns, trees, bushes and admire the array of apples grown.

We visited as a group of friends staying at a music festival near by. Very lovely lady on the gate gave us wonderful tips on where to visit. The gardens were beautiful a d we were all taken about by the very old oak tree, and loved the bee nest. Thanks for the warning about this. We spent a leisurely 2 hours here and loved every minute. Thank you.

Very pleasant young lady on the gate who made us feel very welcome, and who gave us some information on the gardens. Easy to get around everything. Lovely planting, but wish more plants had labels! This was especially true of the annuals that provided a lovely splash of colour. It would have been nice to know what they all were. We were probably a little late in the year to get plants at their best, but it was still a smashing little place to saunter round.

We visited Westbury Court Garden and took the in-laws with us. We had a very friendly greeting by the lady on duty, she gave us a very brief, but informative, overview of the place.It's a lovely little National Trust site, and it is flat to walk around the gardens, which for my mother-in-law is a bonus. She managed the stairs to the viewing pavilion, and was glad she did, as you get an overview of the garden from there. The fish greeted us when we looked into the first canal (sounds larger then it is) as we were told they are fed by visitors.We spent about an hour and half there and would have spent longer had there been a cafe - but it's too small for one - but you can take a picnic and the picnic area looked lovely and well laid out.Only other thing to note is that there is only one WC - I can imagine if it's a busy day you will need to queue - but when we were there it wasn't too busy, as we got there early.

This isn't a massive NT site when compared with most others but is still worth the trip; looking at old documents it would have been a vast place in olden days. A big bonus for some will be the fact that the site is completely flat like a billiard table and thus easy to get round. The gardens and lakes are beautifully laid out and the overall setting is great. It is a very peaceful site and is an ideal place - given the right weather - to take a picnic.. The fruit and flower gardens are interesting and pretty and are perfectly laid out and, in one area, stands an absolutely massive old oak tree that's about 400+ years old. Certainly worth a visit if you aren't too far away from it. Facilities on site are very limited though. Might be worth taking your own refreshments.

It's quite small, but worth the effort of a diversion. It's full of history and interest. The nearby church tower with it's oak shingles is worth the short walk.

Well worth visiting if you are into your gardens, un-usual lay out and history. All rears open and not massive so easy stroll

A very peaceful place, although we were lucky as it wasn't too crowded when we were there. Lovely for picnics and good for a break on a journey, but unless local, not to make a special long trip for. Has a very impressive very old oak. No cafe, and only one toilet so be prepared for queues if busy.

A beautiful garden with many contrasting areas within. The central feature is the ornamental pond which you gradually make you way around as you appreciate the gardeners' hard work. Includes a small rabbit warren (managed) for the kids.Definitely worth popping into if you're in the area! No NT tearoom, though you can buy a hot drink etc, in the ticket office.Comment: a moment of uncertainty overcame me as to where to park the car - but just drive down the right hand side of the gardens - signage could be improved.
