About Us

This amazing Victorian garden was created by James Bateman for his collection of plants from around the world. A visit takes you on a global journey from Italy to the pyramids of Egypt, a Victorian vision of China and a re-creation of a Himalayan glen.

The garden features collections of rhododendrons, summer bedding displays, a stunning dahlia walk in late summer and the oldest surviving golden larch in Britain, brought from China in the 1850s. The Geological Gallery shows how Bateman reconciled geology and theology. Travel through time as the gallery depicts the creation story.

Visit the Garden Room for a delicious menu of light soups, sandwiches and cakes, whilst taking in a view of the garden and relaxing in front of the log fire. Open 11am-5pm daily.
