Things to note for your visit

  • The garden project has seen quite a few changes. Some of the plants are only just starting to come through, whilst other areas will take until next year to start to grow. The garden is evolving and we hope you enjoy regular visits to see how it develops over time.
  • There are no animals at the moment and we are managing the paddock as a wildflower meadow, letting the flowers bloom for bees and butterflies.
