The gardens contain a fabulous variety of perennials, shrubs, roses herbaceous borders and beautifully planted pots. The gardens are always developing with many exciting plans in the pipelines. Each area has it own character from the peaceful fern garden to the sweeping long borders the kitchen gardens all surrounded by sweeping lawns and graceful nodding meadows. You can wind your way through the woodland paths, or enjoy a moment of peace by the pond or be transported into another world in the scented glasshouse and potager kitchen gardens.
