    Our third visit to these wonderful gardens. Each time we find something new and, I am sure, if we…read morevisited many times the same would be true. I must admit though, as we get older, there are parts that are strenuous to explore. Thank goodness we did the deeper parts earlier in our lives. One difference this time, which we didn't know about until we had parked up, is pre-booking. We had to book in on my iPhone and wait until a slot was available. No problem. Also, more food and drink outlets throughout the gardens.

    Tourist trap. Poorly managed. All about the benjamins and they've let it go to s*** since the last…read moreTV show aired where they spent 10 minutes talking about the pineapple pit and they didn't even bother to keep it up/use it. Too difficult and costly? You know they did this before WWII... with less resources and technology than you have at your disposal, right? Really, just watch the TV show on the gardens because now instead of trying to restore it to its past glory, the management grow flowers to sell. If they took all the flowers in their gift shop and planted them in their gardens then maybe they'd be a step closer to restoring anything. But they've had this land for many many years now and they only do the bare minimum to get ppl there. Great history and potential but the management needs to step up! If you're a gardener, you'll be sorely disappointed.
