I visited here yesterday with my partner and we were really impressed. I only live 15 minutes away and have driven past the castle on a few occasions, so it was a nice surprise to find a gem like this on my doorstep. We ended up spending 4 hours wandering around the gardens, house and having something to eat in the cafe. The gypsy wagons are incredible too! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I'll certainly bring my children here over the Easter holidays. Keep up the good work.

We had a real surprise visiting The Museum of the Carpet. We took our eight year old granddaughter and were worried that it might not be interesting enough for her. We needn’t have worried as she loved it. Anthea, who explained the looms to us, was superb. She directed her questions directly to our granddaughter and captured her attention. She sealed it by showing her how and a small loom worked and giving her advice as she did some weaving. We had to prize her away. It is a lovely museum with lots of hands on interactive displays and staffed by people who really care about their subject. To cap it all entry if free until the end of August.

Lovely, blousy, rambling gardens filled with rare and unusual plants and points of interest. I've visited the gardens and nursery many times over the years. The owner is always very helpful and her nursery is well worth a look at if you're interested in obtaining some of the plants found growing in the gardens. The owner's dogs can be in attendance (with owner!) - friendly to people. Stone House Cottage Gardens are a remarkable endeavour and make a good hour or more visit as and when they open again in spring.
