Great Comp opens its doors again on 1 March and, for those who have not yet been, it has been worth visiting in previous years for the snowdrops. They are currently offering a 10% discount on annual tickets (offer ends at the end of February).

Concessionary rates are available - including joint tickets for two adults.

You don't need to book your visit in advance and it looks as though take-away coffees will be available.

William Dyson, the garden’s curator and salvia specialist, sells his plants there. Salvias were a godsend last hot, dry summer!
