When you have finished touring the garden, head to the Savill Garden Kitchen to enjoy a menu of salads, British classic dishes and desserts. On a nice day, bring a picnic and enjoy it in the outdoors at one of the designated picnic areas. Before you leave, tour the garden gift store for seeds and gardening tools to take home.
