Catching the early morning sun, the orchard was probably the site of the original 16th century kitchen garden. Featuring historic varieties of apple trees, which in March / April sit amongst a carpet of daffodils, the orchard is a lovely place to sit and admire the view. In late September / early October, the apples become the star of the show as they ripen and then can be tasted and bought at our annual Apple and Orchard event. In 2016, the historic pathway through the orchard was reinstated to allow year round access to the garden.
