West Green House Garden. Hartley Wintney. National Trust. If not member £8 entry. But as I said, you cannot rely on seeing it now as it often flies out with the Canada geese during the daytime and their opening hours, and it wasn't there when I went, the swan mother being alone on the lake.

Thanks for your speedy reply.
I'll probably wait till next year now, assuming another hybrid hatches then.
That is safest. They usually announce it on their fb page I think. From May through to about July before it/they can fly is obviously 100% guarantee. There are several photos of it on the internet though- type in 'West Green Swoose images' and it should come up- including a couple of it as adult standing by a wooden bridge. There are more of the Dorset one, including a really interesting shot of it as a baby with both parents.
