It was nice to finally go around the remains of the abbey and the later Byron family house as a grown-up: I'd been to the gardens as a kid but not in the house itself. It's actually a rather good visit with some interesting displays and there was certainly more to see than I imagined!
Anyway, we had a lovely day in the sunshine, watching waders and enjoying the gardens. Photos below...
