Head Gardener's Comment

A fabulous 5 acre garden set in delightful Derbyshire countryside. Immaculate lawns set off a variety of 'rooms' in the garden including Roman, Italian, Cornish and of course English garden themes. There are many rare plants to be found. There is certainly something for everyone, and we welcome meeting visitors to chat about anything to do with gardening.

History

2009 is the fourth year that the garden has been open to the public. There are many very mature trees and shrubs that combine beautifully with some more recent plantings.

Plants of Note

Numerous! An all white garden; an entire bank of blue hyrangeas, the wollemi pine tree plus many more. Plants are also for sale.
