We had a fabulous morning painting loose floral watercolours followed by a delicious lunch (Double baked goats cheese soufflé…. .amazing!) We then walked off the calories around the gardens. We didn’t even care that it rained a little!! More...

Lovely couple of hours spent in the gardens and for coffee. Interesting notes around the place. However, shop felt haphazard without obvious indications as to what each of the products were. Not much within the online shop.

We went to the festival of Scent followed by their French themed jazz evening and we both thoroughly enjoyed the day and evening. The setting is calming and beautiful, the food tasty and the entertainment enjoyable. All the staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The workshops were only taster sessions but we managed to get on all of them and learned a lot about perfume, flowers and aromatherapy oils. And the gin that is made for them by a local supplier is well worth a taste too. We didn't spot the river walk till it was too late to go for a wander but that looked well worth an explore and would make sure we set some time aside to do it next time we go back. We will be looking at what workshops we can get booked onto to go back soon. If you want somewhere to go to destress then I would thoroughly recommend Keyneston Mill. Thank you to all the staff, workshop facilitators and band that made our trip such an enjoyable one. More...

A lovely day out with my 2 young girls (18months and 6yrs) . They loved smelling all the flowers and exploring the gardens. The lunch we had was absolutely delicious and the staff could not have been more helpful. The children enjoyed yummy ice cream whilst sat in a hammock overlooking the River stour and watching the dragonflies. We ended our visiting in the gift shop where we sampled the perfumes with a member of staff who told us about the different fragrances. Highly recommend a visit More...

What a beautifully curated space this is, for anyone who loves botanicals it’s dreamy. The carefully designed spaces take you on a sensory journey which soothes the soul. The restaurant food is amazing and staff were attentive to our needs moving us to a quieter table when requested. The perfumes are exquisite and we can’t wait to join one of the perfume making days. Such a beautiful experience I am torn between telling the world and keeping it to myself. More...

a rainy day visit in October...we loved the forgotten Orchard with its tree's loaded with fruit and the beehives were busy. the pathway lined with scented geraniums was quite unique..a few rose's still hanging on to their last blooms. we prefer ordered a picnic and as we couldn't eat it in the restaurant and as it was raining again..one very kind member of staff opened a dome for us to sit..😚 a return visit will be on the cards next year.

We had our wedding dinner ( in our own dome ) on Fri 16th Oct 2020. Covid had put paid to any thought of a larger wedding and our small , close family group of 6 were completely stuck for a post wedding venue. It was a last minute idea and having experienced their wonderful cuisine in the form of a picnic lunch and appreciated their fabulous gardens, I knew we would be in for a treat. We had an an amazing time. Tailor made for a small group, a beautifully prepared dome, they were so attentive to our needs and the meal was superb. We cannot thank them enough. 10/10 Michelle Woods, now Kyprianou. More...
