Kingwood Center Gardens, Mansfield

Such a beautiful place! The incredibly sweet and friendly staff at Kingwood truly make the whole experience wonderful. The well cared for gardens were absolutely beautiful. The perennial garden in particular blew me away, it was so incredibly vibrant and choke-full of blooms!! Everything about this place is handled with class and care. I particularly enjoyed learning about the history of the property. Tours of the manor are self guided. The on site cafe has some wonderful food options: healthy, seasonal, organic and local items available. I would stop here for just lunch alone if I lived nearby. The garden shop had an excellent variety of quality plants and garden goods at fair prices. Our visit at Kingwood far exceeded expectations. I look forward to visiting again and possibly taking some classes down the road (botanical cocktail classes, yes please!)

Educational and beautiful. The volunteers were friendly and knowledgeable. They shared lot of the history of the home and gardens. The green houses were also beautiful. A large variety of plants, I loved all the air plants and cactus varieties. We stopped in mid-week and it wasn't too busy. They also have a little cafe were you can grab coffee and a quick bite to eat. Highly recommend stopping if you are in Mansfield.
