    In February 2009, we visited Barewood Gardens after a tour of Yealands Estate vineyards and were thrilled to see such beauty in plants and flowers and trees. The owners obviously love and cherish Barewood Gardens. There are lots of places to sit awhile beneath the shade of a tree. Strolling the grounds one feels any second a gnome may peek out from behind a toadstool and invite us to tea and scones. There is an original cob cottage all white and whimsical and well over one-hundred-years-old that serves as a gift shop where one may become quite unsure as to what to bring home as there are many delightful items all with unique properties.
    We enjoyed a buffet lunch with baked salmon with fresh dill...absolutely the best I've had, honestly saying so. The salad ingredients were fresh from the organic gardens. There is a special Afternoon Tea service but this is very popular and so you'll have to arrange for a time. There are many places to have tea and stroll a garden but when your hosts really care about your experience...then it's a special place and a special experience.

    This is a great garden and well worth the visit. In January 2008 my family stopped in for a visit and we just loved it, spent a relaxing 2 hours exploring the garden and of course peppering our hosts with questions. Highly recommended!
