What were once cow yards, pens and fields have been transformed into fragrant and delightful flower gardens (the Rose and Iris Gardens, the Lily Garden and the White Garden), their design influenced by Gertrude Jekyll. The stone-walled kitchen garden produces a variety of wonderful fruit and vegetables, which can be enjoyed in the restaurant, while the orchards provide the apples for our own cider and apple juice. This is a place to relax and refresh the senses.
