Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

The world needs more places like Great Dixter! This is a wonderful garden and house and is well worth a visit. Planted and maintained in an intentionally naturalistic style the gardens are beautiful, romantic and incredibly biodiverse. Reviewers complaining of "long grass" have clearly failed to understand the intentional planting of wild meadows close to the house which are both beautiful and fantastic for wildlife. Reviewers complaining of "narrow paths" have failed to understand that this garden was designed for a private home, not as a visitor attraction. Having previously attended with a baby in buggy the wheelchair accessible routes (see map at garden entrance) are more than adequate.

Let me count the ways this could be better ….
What a mess from start to finish.
The welcome was pretty lukewarm for a start . I bought a membership which arrived in the post as a piece of paper only . Which seemed a little odd at the time but I didn’t think too much . Went there the weekend of the Plant Fair for the first time - to be told at the gate - after some questioning in front of my guest which was so embarrassing - that this was a compliments slip and they would let me in “ by taking my word”. The card has subsequently arrived . Then I was further questioned by another person when we tried to get house access . Also embarrassing. Woman sighed and said “ well I suppose I have to trust you “. What a dreadful way to be treated .
The garden is a hot mess . It’s even impossible to walk along the paths .
I have no idea why this is famous and I will never go again

Lovely to see this famous garden and its house just before it closes for the winter. All the 'hot' colours of the Dahlias etc are looking great. Only downside is the café which is pricey for the very limited fare available and the soup seemed of gulag quality !

The once Great Dixter Garden is suffering from Covid. With lock downs, it appears that no only were there few visitors, but there was little maintenance. Many of the beautiful flagstone paths are overgrown and almost impassable, and the formerly sculpted hedges with intricate pruned shapes and forms have not been attended in some time with weeds growing out of the hedge rows. Christopher Lloyd may be turning in his grave. However, the limited three-room tour of the original home is probably worth the price of admission. The docents are well informed and the story of the mostly 15th century structure are well told. If the gardens are ever returned to their original condition, then this would be a "must see." If you go, do stop for some espresso and scones at the cafe. That will make it worth the trip

I love this garden - the planting is so skillful and undertaken with such care and thought as a result the garden rooms are so verdant, colourful and intimate. I felt I was being wrapped up with huge horticultural skill and love - a wonderful experience.
In addition the staff are lovely, they are so knowledgeable and skillful, so willing to talk to visitors, friendly and welcoming. They are keeping the love and enthusiasm of Christopher Lloyd alive.
Given the events at this time - the death of Queen Elizabeth 11 - staff were wearing black arm bands and there were references to and acknowledgement of the Queen's death in different places - such as the entrance to the house.
Thank you for a wonderful experience.

There is good and bad
The good. the 15th century house is very good but no photos are aloud and the out buildings are very good . lots of flowers and veg .
The Bad. all the paths are all over grown. the Exotic garden is like a jungle you have to fight your way through. i look at the old photos . the cafe well the food is over price. the food is not that good. i had the cheese scone was claggy . the cafe is not utilising the veg and salad that are grown there. it is a shame it could be a nice money maker. just need a lot of TLC. the shop is over price . the plant's for sale are the same price as a garden center. it is like they have giving up on the maintenance of the garden. i know it is hard times. But some one will hurt them self. most of the garden is not wheelchair friendly. i have been to a lot of garden and this is the bottom 1/10

Great Dixter is an idyll but looking at some of the other reviews it’s clear that not everyone gets the informal planting style are carefully managed appearance of semi-neglect. However, this review relates to the cafe, which is no less idyllic with its outdoor wooden structures in a garden surrounded by verdant countryside. The little cafe hut serves snacks and cakes as per usual and even has a proper coffee machine. What a shame the staff seem to struggle to make a decent coffee from it though. Any coffee fanatic will know that if it’s scorching hot, the taste of the coffee is gone and you’ve wasted your money. Different members of staff seem to take different approaches to making the coffee, and frothing the milk, with different levels of success. Here’s an idea - get the cafe team some barista training. With this sorted out what a wonderful cafe it could be!

We visited it in July 2022 when the country suffered with heat and we expected it will effect the gardens. Luckily not too much as all gardens were wonderful. We did use voucher from the Gardener's World magazine for 2 people visit garden and pay only for one.
First we visited the house and loved it. It had feeling of normal home and the mix of old and modern furniture were exceptional. Unfortunately it was not allowed to take photos there. The volunteering stewards told us a lot about the house, family and gardens which were really appreciated.
Then we went into gardens and we immediately realized why it has such incredibly good reputations. All gardens were wonderful, full of flowers, shrubs and trees and we cannot choose just one as the best as all were amazing.
Special part is the nursery where you can buy flowers seen in the garden.
Also toilets were clean.
We would highly recommend visiting this incredible place.

We visited a few years ago and were wowed more in the past particularly with the long border. Yes there is colour and the cannas are splendid, however it's obvious that the ravages of the drought have had a detrimental effect this year. The Exotic Garden was so overgrown you had to fight your way through it and therefore you lost the impact of the more dramatic plants such as the bananas.
We visited the cafe and had tea and cake and unfortunately although the lemon curd Victoria sponge was lovely, it was such a measly thin slice for £3.75 we were disappointed. We used our 2 for 1 Gardener's World voucher so it cost £14.50 for 2 people. If we had paid full price we would have felt a bit ripped off. Such a shame....

This is a long way to travel from Leeds. Accepting that TV coverage extracts the best bit, I wonder whether this is worth the 500+ mole round trip unless in the area for a short break?

It is a special place but it isn't the only place worth visiting in Sussex. When I return to this area I will certainly stay somewhere locally and make the visit worthwhile. Do heed the comments made by others - it can be very busy so choose your time to visit with care.

Yes, Rye is a little distance away but would be an exceptionally pretty and historic choice. I have not stayed there but the food and ambience at The Bear Hotel are excellent.

We went with friends who live fairly near Rye and have a dog. They left her at home and we didn't see any dogs while we were there...so I think it's very unlikely.
