The Michelin Guide's review
The impressive 17C property has an exhibition devoted to its history and a number of craft shops. The gardens on sloping grounds facing the south side of Sugar Loaf Mountain (503m/1,650ft) are however the main attraction. The Japanese Garden strewn with bridges and pagoda, the lovely Walled Gardens with decorative plants and the gorgeous rose garden are particularly noteworthy.
