Only assistance dogs, such as guide dogs, are permitted within the garden.

The garden features over 400, unavoidable steps throughout, as well as many gravel paths, stepping-stones and open sources of water. 

The garden is Grade I listed and as a result, there are very few handrails available on the steps.
