Perfect picnic spots
With plenty of room in the grounds and many idyllic spots to enjoy an al fresco lunch, here are some top places to spread out a blanket.
Pick a quiet spot and bring your own food to enjoy as a picnic in the gardens. Alternatively pick up something from one of our food to go outlets or the Treaterie and create your own picnic on the day you visit. With a tempting selection of cakes and bakes, sandwiches and drinks in environmentally friendly disposable cups, there is plenty on offer to enjoy with your friends and family.
Here are some of our top spots to relax with your tasty treats…
