“The Garden House is a plantsman’s paradise…. I love it!” Toby Buckland (BBC Presenter)
As Toby Buckland says, our garden is a true plantsman’s paradise which holds delights for both the seasoned gardener and for those who simply enjoy exploring and immersing themselves in the beauty and tranquillity of 12 acres of stunning gardens.
The Garden House holds special seasonal delights all year round, from our famous Snowdrop Festival early in the year, to the magnificent Wisterias, Azaleas and Rhododendron in early summer, the herbaceous summer borders of the Walled Garden and later in the autumn, the Acer Glade with its striking ‘New England’ colours.
Stroll around the colourful, romantic gardens, including the Summer Garden, Cottage Garden, the Acer Glade (with its stunning autumn colour), the Walled Garden and the Jubilee Arboretum and you’ll enjoy finding new views at every turn.

Beautiful interesting gardens. Different areas offer different styles of planting. The walled garden is stunning whatever time of year you visit.

Stunningly beautiful garden. We loved every moment. A must for garden lovers. A garden that provides true inspiration for your own garden. The scones in the cafe are perfect, just as scones should be!
