Sightseeing
This place is expensive but absolutely incredible. Definitely wear some good shoes and prepare to spend a good chunk of your day exploring the mansion and gardens/grounds.
We like recommending the Stable Cafe.
The winery is also included with the ticket purchase and we encourage you to check it out too!
Bonus Note: Rent the headsets. I repeat, rent the headsets. They add SO MUCH to the experience!
