About

The gardens around the medieval moated manor feature a wide variety of plants, trees and shrubs in different settings. Throughout the gardens there are many roses, especially classic varieties. In the Heritage and Modern Rose Gardens are roses in designs reflecting their date and origin. On the South Lawn is a classic temple and the Sensory Garden with water feature and plants selected for touch, sound and taste, scent and colour.

Wildflowers are everywhere but especially around the lakes and ruined church. Unusual trees and shrubs are featured throughout.

Our tranquil setting offers the ideal spot for a leisurely afternoon with friends, family, or a quiet moment of relaxation. Surrounded by the rich history and beauty of the estate, our Cafe, in partnership with Bread Source, promises a truly unforgettable experience. We are delighted to now be home to this award-winning artisan bakery, which is serving delicious tea, coffee, pastries and cakes every day. Whether you’re here for a special occasion or a simple indulgence, we invite you to unwind in style and savour every moment.

Our walks and car park are open every day from 9am – dusk. Dogs on leads are welcome, but particular care is needed in fields where sheep graze.

There are lavatories with wheelchair access at the entrance.The Visitor Centre has pictures and seasonal information that provides an excellent introduction to our varied habitats.
