Type: Garden

A romantically, atmospheric, 5 acre garden created by “ The Naked Gardeners” (dressed for the public!) Ian & Barbara Pollard. Two gardens in one; the formal gardens have fine lawns, huge herbaceous borders, a Celtic cross knot garden and over 2000 different roses under-planted with 100,000 tulips – breathtaking in spring and summer. A sunken circular herb garden sits inside an arcade of fruit trees with exotically stocked beds bedside. The sloping pathways through mature trees descend to fernery ponds, waterfall in the river gardens where hellebores, heathers and hydrangeas flourish amid specimen trees and shrubs.

We are open from 21st March - 21st October daily 1100-1700.
