★★★★★5 months agoBeautiful lemon garden, although there were no lemons, but the barn itself was very cute. The flowers planted around was beautiful. Worth a walk! I love the organic look of the wall and the sculpted lemons. Unexpectedly beautiful!

★★★★★a year agoI thoroughly enjoyed meandering through this smaller garden. The Lemon House is exquisite and serves as the perfect backdrop to this formal garden.
