Step 1: Set back from Ecclesall Road is a real hidden gem. Like me, you might have passed it a million times and never realised it was there...
Step 2: But beyond the busy road, nestled behind a high wall, is a peaceful oasis filled with exotic plants from around the world.
Step 3: Locate the entrance beside the bridleway and Fenny Lane. Once through the gate, you can take any route you please as it’s lovely just to wander, but we did a figure-of-eight tour around the main paths.
