Sitting n making Vit D by the dolphin fountain . Several others to choose from too.

Look at all the sculptures , the Tudor mini village and the fairy tree . Cute kiosk there too. Give cook’s cottage a miss, unless you love genocide and colonialism.

Sigrid de Castella

Love this park for a walk with the dogs but not off leash and rangers around regularly so watch out.

Waltz around but watch out for the bikers and skateboarders.

Trees are planted like a union jack..., boring and uninteresting tho. Tudor village alright but barely a garden .

Simply beautiful

Very nice on a summers day. Believe me!
