What makes Stoneywell special for you?
There is something magical, a special and irresistible ‘sense of place’ about both the cottage and the grounds that makes every visitor, volunteer and member of staff fall under their combined spell almost at once. The Gimson family’s love of the place is still palpable, and our dedicated garden team make sure that the delicate balance between nature and cultivation that they created is maintained.
Besides, who could resist the prospect of 1000s of fluttering daffodils in April, or seeing a misty lake of bluebells under the oaks in the woods in May, while waiting for the grand display of the magnificent rhododendrons to begin. Even when these delights have faded, there are still the flaming colours of the acers in the autumn to anticipate with relish.
