“Beautiful well maintained gardens. They were lovely to deal with and accommodated my elderly grandparents with a golf cart. They let me decide a few hours before my wedding started to choose either the chapel or the rotunda due to the heat. They also provided maps to all my guests. Highly recommend.” — Rebekka M.
