Riverhill Himalayan Gardens

Really lovely gardens! Beautiful flowers and trees - some formal gardens but also lovely paths going here and there! Some rough and hilly and a bit steep for wheelchairs but the main part of the gardens would be lovely for anyone. Staff were friendly and very helpful - great cafe and lovely pots of tea! A lovely day out for family ! ….and we will definitely be going again!

We enjoyed our visit on Saturday very much. The bluebells were spectacular, as were the Rhododendrons and azaleas. The paths, though a bit steep in places, were, on the whole, well maintained and the cafe was busy and well stocked with plenty of choice. We also liked the craft fair and thought that the plants and garden gifts were very well priced. NB it's a cash free garden, so pay by card only.

Visited on the weekend, we were looking for a place to break off from the London environment... On arrival it was quite busy, but still couple of spaces on car park which was quite generous... We stopped at the coffee shop for a panini and a sandwich with coffee and we tasted the cherry lemon cake... We went up to viewpoint ( nice views ) and than we walked through the bluebell paths ( small area of wood land )... We walked through the garden up the rocks path to viewpoint again... Benches everywhere through woods, you can stop and sit down, meditate or simply enjoy the nature... Nice space, nice garden design and floral/ trees arrangements... There are 2 impressive pines which captured our attention... Overall is a nice space for spending couple of hours between flowers and trees ( especially like this time of year when bluebells and blossoms season)... Not far from London... Excellent day out, we had a good time here... Worth visiting, and will be back... ( I would change the flag from viewpoint as quite old... A new one would do better )

A lovely and peaceful place to visit near Sevenoaks in Kent there is a walled garden with a water feature and lovely covered area to sit at the top. Next door is the Primrose meadow which at the moment ( March ) is carpeted in the pretty yellow blooms. You will also find the hidden rock garden which was abandoned for 70 years and has only recently been cleared and brought back to life. There is a pond there with water gently trickling in. At the moment there are numerous frogs and plenty of frog spawn. Next I went up into the woods and made my way all the way up to the viewpoint. You are rewarded for your efforts as you have a magnificent view over the Kentish Weald. Moving on and downwards there is a great woodland play area for kids and from there the path winds down to your starting point. There is a rose walk next to the walled garden, there was little to see at this time but I'm sure it will be beautiful in a few months. As you journey around the site you will find plenty of places to sit,rest and watch the world go by and there are picnic tables at various points too! There is a cafe on site but beware, they do not accept cash, I find this most frustrating. The outside area of the cafe is lovely in the sunshine and there were plenty of people enjoying the warm day. There is also a little shop just opposite the entry booth. Entry is £13 for an adult but a yearly membership is only £36. RHS members can visit for free on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Parking is free for all There are toilets on site There are numerous activities and events taking place throughout the year.

Lovely place, great for a day out with young kids as you can explore most of the gardens without tiring out little legs. Excellent play park too, and great coffee for the adults! Also dog-friendly. There's also a little shop where you can purchase plants and gifts. Personal highlights were the vegetable patch and the rock garden. Will definitely be returning!

A beautiful place, so tranquil and one to revisit at some stage. Highly recommended for family days out, or just a walk with your partner. Special mention to the Yeti.😁

Beautiful gardens, amazing adventure playground. So much to do for adults and kids. Dog friendly. Gorgeous cafe. Highly recommend.

Really enjoyable first visit to the gardens. The Walled Garden was beautiful, the maze was fun, the rock garden, ferns and pool delightful. It is steep to get to the top but the maze was worth it. It was only 16°-19°C and sunny but the trees cut the wind so it felt warm in the sun. The cafe is really good and the coffee was excellent but isn't cheap. The team are really good and the tables were constantly being cleared so it was an enjoyable dining experience. We enjoyed our first visit and would come again at different times of the year to see the bluebells or the azaleas/rhododendrons in bloom.
