we enjoyed the visit, but the gardens where pretty bare when we went, and they do not allow photos, at all. A lot of the stuff in there is not original to the Waltons, and yet no photos. But the things there are period for the house.
We've been to a number of old mansions in the south and this one was smaller and far less grand than others; however, we always hear something we didn't know before and our guide was exceptionally nice and friendly.

If you've a couple of hours to kill (less in the winter when the gardens aren't in bloom) and a fiver to spare, then don't miss taking a tour of the Peel Museum in Bentonville Mo.
