An Essex farm house which was made into a garden after 1955 and then taken over by the RHS. It has lawns, a dell, a lily pond, raised beds, mixed borders and other features. A surprising number of plants flourish on a windy dry hill but the construction details are not good and one looks forward to seeing what improvements result from RHS management. There is much scope.

Opening times All year. Daily except 25th December. Open 11am to 6pm or dusk (5pm in September and October).

    My wife and I have spent many enjoyable days, as we live within easy reach of Hyde Hall, which we have always admired. The woodland area now overtaken by the Robinson garden, was an absolute gem. The bank in spring was full of beauty, snowdrops, hyacinths, primroses, hellebores, and other lovely plants beneath the trees was a woodland paradise.
    Sadly the Robinson garden replaced it. It is completely out of character with the whole garden,
    and hideous in the extreme. Whoever 'designed' it has a strange sense of beauty. The wall has nothing to commend it - we hope it will soon be demolished and replaced with something more in keeping with the whole garden. Sad that it must have cost a fortune.
