Lovely little park. Dog friendly Nice mix of gardens and countryside. Small town with a couple good places to eat. Park owner is really sweet. Amenities were nice. Lovely place to camp overnight. One downside was the birds. Those things don't know how to be quiet. I suggest you bring earplugs. Would stay again if I ever pass through there again.
