Beautiful garden, subpar wheelchair access

Overview

The website states the majority of the gardens are wheelchair accessible and while this might have technically been true, it was not without struggle. I am a manual wheelchair user and was unable to propel across much of the terrain unaided. The paths were gravel and most gardens couldn't be viewed properly from the paths and required you to go across the grass and there no dropped curbs. The corridors to access the accessible toilets in the cafe also had very narrow corridors which difficult to manouver in.
