THE VICTORIAN
WALLED GARDENS
The original Victorian stone walled gardens lie to the west of the house and are equally beautiful in the Autumn as in the spring.
With a vast array of plants, flowers and trees, some indigenous to the area and some thought to have been brough back by Lord Haig, including the stunning in bloom Japanese rose blossom trees. At the south end of the gardens sits the vast greenhouses with a wonderfully modernised summer house.
