Gardens

Apart from the walled gardens, there are several other gardens around the property. The most prominent of these is the driveway garden, on show as you approach the house. Here there are a wide variety of trees and flowering shrubs, including several prized rhodedendra bushes. An example is shown above in full bloom in summer.

There are Japanese cherry trees, monkey puzzle trees and a variety of birch, beech and cedar trees. The lawn is awash with daffodils in spring and flowering hydranga in summer. The centre piece is the tennis lawn, now a recreational space in front of the house, providing guests with a tranquil spot to take tea in summer, whilst watching over the lake. And the tennis...a hard court is planned for 2007 in the overgrown kitchen garden to the rear of the house!
