In the south-east of the park, near [[Englefield Green]], are the Savill Garden and [[Valley Gardens]] which were designed and built by [[Eric Savill]] in the 1930s and 1940s. They include an extraordinary range of flowers and trees from around the world. Smith’s Lawn and Polo Grounds are also nearby, as is the tranquil Heather Garden. The Savill Garden Visitor Centre houses a gift shop; toilets; restaurant; coffee shop; ice cream counter; and a shop selling many plants found in the garden. The gardens are open to visitors between 10:00 and 16:30 in the winter and 10:00 and 18:00 in the summer.<ref name=Opening>{{cite web|url=http://www.windsorgreatpark.co.uk/en/visit/opening-times-charges|title=Opening times and charges|publisher=The Crown Estate|access-date=16 April 2016}}</ref>
