Visitor Reviews of Knoll Gardens
Google Visitor Review Score 4.6 stars
Don’t take our word for how genuinely super these gardens are. Here is what visitors to Knoll Gardens had to say:
“A lovely natural garden that focuses on grasses, and other specimen plants in a non formal setting.
Very definitely worth a visit if you are into nature gardening and it grasses.
Good parking, on site toilets, a small self service refreshment area, and nursery shop”
“The garden design and layout, the layering, textures, colours, light, and contrasts are exquisite.
It doesn’t have a curated look; it feels like a natural paradise.”
“A delightful, naturalistic, wildlife-friendly garden, specialising in grasses and perennials.
Not manicured, but very beautiful and tranquil, particularly as the season is changing to autumn. My Mum and I loved it! “
