Family visit including kids aged 4, 10 and 12. Only visited the gardens. We all loved it! Took us about 2 to 2.5hrs, but we did stop for a packed lunch and quite a few stops for photos. Lot of shade in the gardens, which was very welcome as it was a hot sunny day. I liked that it wasn't packed full of people. There was a free find the clues type trail for kids too, where they get a little chocolate at the end - that was a nice touch. Fair price as well for tickets. Looks like visitors are probbly more from an older age category, but I think it is definitely suitable for families with kids.
After a visit to Compton Acres Gardens today 11 of us had an absolutely lovely Afternoon Tea to celebrate two special occasions. From my initial enquiry & booking.. to the brilliant service today.. everyone was super friendly and helpful and waiting staff took very good care of us. Highly recommended!
A big thank you to all 🫖🍰🥂
A wonderful charming and welcoming entrance to the beautiful Compton Acres Gardens. The café and tea rooms are cute, open and casual eat in bakery that serves hot and cold food. Selection of dishes are simple such as soups, fish and chips, quiche and salad and sandwiches. They have an enormous selection of cakes and drinks.
They also sell made to order cakes from the selection they sell and extremely reasonable prices. We ordered a signature caramel & raspberry 9" cake for £35 with custom message on.
Lovely for impromptu treat.
I just love the tranquility of this place. In the heart of a big tourist focus town, Compton Acres provides a surprisingly peaceful opportunity to relax and wander around beautiful and perfectly maintained gardens. Woodlands areas, a formal Italian garden, Japanese garden and well laid out ponds / streams all make this a great afternoon out. Very recommended.

Fantastic food, especially the risotto and the fish and chips. Fantastic cakes and a really lovely place to sit and eat with a good atmosphere. Love it there.
Never visited the cafe for food but gardens are well worth a visit. Wheelchair and pram friendly. Would highly recommend
Beautiful gardens to explore with lots of lovely flowers and shrubs. The cafe has lots of very yummy food and all the Staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly. We'll worth a visit.
Very busy but very nice coffee and avocado cake. Quite expensive but as we went on a Tuesday during August, we were able to take advantage of The Eat Out To Help Out scheme!
Cafe and lovely gardens. Well worth a visit. Seating area outside the cafe is very attractive. Food and drinks all very good. Large parking area attached. Classy gift shop and small garden centre. We often visit.
