Description:
The gardens comprise a spring woodland garden of some 15 acres with a very fine display of Erythronium revolutum followed by bluebells and narcissi. Since 1994, the contiguous redundant six-acre walled garden has been substantially overhauled and redesigned by Michael and Charlotte Wemyss, with completely new planting and landscaping concentrating in particular on clematis, roses and ornamental trees.
