Is the yard muddy
The yard has concrete pathways or hard standing in the vast majority of areas. We do recommend closed toe comfortable footwear as our yard is big and your visit may involve a bit of walking. We have umbrellas available in reception if the weather requires. It is cold in the winter, so wrap up if you think your visit may be a long one!
