A large two acre garden in a woodland setting, giving a wonderful air of peace and serenity, enhanced by a river with natural waterfalls – which can be quite spectacular! Our many tender and rare plants thrive in this mild, sheltered climate, and allows for a wide variety of planting. This provides continuous interest from March through to October with its beautiful autumn colours. Statuary and five unique locally built bridges add to the interest and enjoyment of this beautiful garden.
