Since they didn’t respond to my message, I'm sharing my experience widely. I attended the Christmas illuminated trail on December 20, 2025, and it was a complete disappointment. I felt the experience was poorly designed and not enjoyable at all. The price was outrageous, and it felt more like a dull walk than a festive trail. The decorations were lackluster, and I felt misled about the quality of the experience. Additionally, the staff's service was unacceptable. I expect a prompt response to discuss these issues further, as they need to be addressed.

The ‘Finest Spring Gardens in England’, the 240 acre Leonardslee Gardens Estate at Lower Beeding, near Horsham in West Sussex.
Visit us to enjoy the beautiful landscaped Grade I listed gardens, first planted in 1801. See the outstanding spring displays of rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, magnolias and bluebells.
Restoration began when the present owner, Penny Streeter OBE, acquired the estate in 2017. Penny and her team are dedicated to restoring, maintaining and further improving the gardens and buildings, so that the public can once again experience their beauty and special qualities.
Visitors can explore a wide range of features including the elegant 19th-century Italianate-style Mansion House, listed Grade II for architectural merit, the unique dolls’ house exhibition - and the rare colony of wallabies, wildfowl and huge carp in the seven ponds.
Enjoy popular walking trails at Leonardslee and discover the historic beauty of the restored estate.
Wide selections of refreshments are available from our new restaurants and tea rooms. Our high-end dining and afternoon teas are served in the Leonardslee House and casual fare is served in the Clock Tower Cafe, Courtyard Cafe and other food stations throughout the gardens.See more
