Lady Garnier is happy for us to picnic in the car park field - sadly the local pub is closed on Mondays

Large garden created and developed by the owners since 1996 with lawns and wonderful herbaceous borders - lots of  interesting perennials, unusual trees, shrubs and roses. Large and important collection of the prettiest clematis.There is a splendid woodland walk, wildflower area, a lily pond, oak circle, yew hedges featuring a wonderful peacock and clipped hornbeam around a kitchen garden. A garden packed with interest for those who know their plants!

Lady Garnier will show us around and talk to us about those plants we may not know!
