When we started to reclaim this 400-year-old garden in 2001, I had no idea if we could make a permanent difference. All the buildings were on the National At Risk Register and self-sown trees swamped the grounds (abandoned when the house was demolished in 1951). That was 18 years ago and the chaos has now been replaced by meadows, sweet peas, roses, vegetables, cutflowers and drifts of bulbs in a stunning parkland setting.
The revival of the gardens has put the heart back into the village and most of our community now has some involvement from taking group bookings to serving your tea or helping to harvest sweet pea seed. It’s not just people who benefit, the gardens are
managed to create different habitats for butterflies, bees, birds and mammals. The rose meadows, terraces and spring meadows provide a sanctuary for wildlife and the river draws a diverse number of animals and birds to the gardens throughout the year.
We love sharing our beautiful garden and look forward to welcoming both new and returning visitors in 2020.
Our popular country market is now in its 15th year and it continues to grow. Showcasing over 60 stalls of the region’s best artisan crafts and produce. Enjoy craft demonstrations, plant sales and much more at this wonderful event.
Autumn Country MarketSunday 6th September 2020
