Really great for a family day out, bring a picnic and comfortable shoes, lots of trails to walk around (short & long) lake side playgrounds and lots of old buildings to explore, the ice house is our favourite, and the cannons, walled garden is fab, recommend a full day here, they serve food and tea/coffee also
