Good To Know - Please read before booking:

• Please dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear
• Sorry, we can only welcome assistance/service dogs, in their uniform and on leads. This is due to the sensitive wildlife we have on site.
• The coffee shop will be open throughout your visit with light refreshments. Please bring your own reusable mug if possible to help us reduce waste. 
• You can arrive anytime on the day of your booking so there is no rush to be here if you fancy a lie-in! Last entry is 2 hours before closing. There are no restrictions on how long you can stay at the garden during opening hours, although we anticipate visits to last 1-2 hours.
• Your ticket includes admission to the Berlin Wall Exhibit and Parking. Please note the car park is approx. 5-8 minute walk from the entrance to the gardens along an undulating gravel track. It may not be suitable for wheelchair/accessible vehicle users. 
• If you need to make use of our accessibility drop-off point please email us ahead of your visit and call 07927 132 148 on arrival at the gardens and one of the team will guide you where to go. 
• All tickets are non-refundable unless Careys has to close the gardens for example; due to severe weather. If you need to swap your booking to a different day, please email us on [email protected]
• Concessions Policy for Carers

As a small, independent garden, we’re only able to offer complimentary entry for carers in specific circumstances — for example, if the guest would be unable to experience the garden fully without support, such as only visiting briefly for a coffee or short stroll.

If you're unsure whether this applies, please do get in touch — we're always happy to help and want everyone to feel welcome.
