 A spokesperson said: "In today's uncertain world snowdrops are a sure sign that Spring is well and truly under way.

"A beautiful end-of-winter walk for all the family with a wonderfully diverse landscape and over 70 varieties of snowdrops.

"Walk along paths amidst carpets of white flowers on an enchanting mile-long route (with options for longer or shorter walks).

"Take in the wild beauty of cascading snowdrops in the Old Wood and Wild Garden, the scenic path down to the lake and drifts of snowdrops in the borders of the formal Nesfield garden in front of the hall.

"Highlights are also the two acre walled kitchen garden and an unmissable vista down the Colonel's Walk where some of the rarest varieties can be viewed."
