A spokesman from the tourist hotspot, said: “The tea room is serving takeaway drinks and cakes, while the extensive nursery features many of the plants seen in the garden. We have taken all the necessary steps to make visiting the garden safe during Covid-19 and this is helped by the layout of the garden with large lawns allowing for social distancing.

“We’re hoping for a more normal summer and have several open air theatres and a Plant Fair planned Dogs on leads are welcome.”
