About

Claremont Landscape Garden should lead Esher things to do because it is the town's clearest destination attraction with broad appeal. The National Trust highlights family-friendly activities, play space, the lake, rowing boats and seasonal events, so it lands as much more than a formal garden for specialist visitors.\n\nThat breadth makes it easy to justify at number one. It suits couples, families and visitors who want somewhere scenic that still offers enough structure for a full outing.
