Witley Court & Gardens, Great Witley

Although this is only a shell of a building, it is magnificent. One can still imagine the grandeur of this building in its prime. The spectacular waterfalls and gardens are truly breath-taking. There is also a truly outstanding church attached to the Court but not owned by English Heritage, free to visit, donations taken but not requested to keep the building in its splendour. Facilities for able and less able persons. Nice shop, with very helpful staff. Small Coffee shop on site.

Wonderful gardens and a very imposing and elegant ruin. The carpark is large with a good size overflow but I still imagine it gets very busy in summer. Good loos and a lovely tea shop by the church nearby. The church is also very interesting. There is a good choice of walks, either around a lake or through some nice woodland and a wilderness garden.
