From the Cheshire Cycleway:

The Cycleway brings you close to these gardens on two occasions. The route passes to the north of the gardens - turn off from Bickerton Hill onto Long Lane southwards and head for Egerton Green with the gardens further along this road. The route also passes south of the gardens between No Mans Heath and Wrenbury, where you should turn off Bickley Lane on one of the right-hand turns, which all lead the gardens.
