A beautiful 4 acre secluded garden with flower beds and lots of non native trees. It's great to meander through the gardens. So peaceful. Great tea room, good parking.

Wonderful garden and such friendly owners/staff. We loved it and found it quite moving in places - especially the quiet seating in the top corner of the garden, near the origonal gardeners resting place. I could happily spend lots of time here, seeing the changing aspects and plants. Definately one to add to your garden visit wish list! Very nice coffee and cakes too.
