I did not know that this park was here, and I was definitely missing out. This place is very beautiful and cosy. There is a wide range of plants here. As a gardening and tree enthusiast, I would recommend it.

Absolutely beautiful. A little gem on my doorstep. My son and i spent a coupe of hours here for the 1st time and he didnt want to leave. Brilliant for little explorers

Great little gem. Peaceful spot for a mini walk and some nice info about the trees. It is open on weekends now. The website should read botanic-garden and has more info if you go to the right site.

Arrived at noon on a Tuesday , all gates were padlocked, but according to signs and website it's open 7 days a week, sadly you can not give zero stars
