Welcome to 12 acres of 'lost' gardens. 400 years of gardening have created a peaceful and settled atmosphere, enhanced by the beautiful valley surrounding it.
There are walks, meadows,David Austin roses,60 varieties of sweet peas, a kitchen garden supplying the tearoom, cottage garden and lots for children. We have a tearoom selling light lunches, teas and homemade cakes and a shop that stocks seasonal gardening gifts.
Just off the A1, in the middle England, we are easy to visit and look forward to seeing you.
