This garden of 52 acres is famous for its collection of rhododendrons but is also a large plantsman's garden of great beauty and character. The modest farmhouse stands beside the lawns and the arboretum containing the stone dais (from which the Rev. Moore is believed to have addressed his parishoners) which is now the base of a bandstand, and surrounded by many fine specimen trees planted by him. Favoured by its damp climate the garden features drifts of Himalyan poppies, hostas, astilbes and rodgersias. There are many varieties of rhododendrons and azaleas in spectacular banks set against a background of woodland.

The compact form of Viburnum plicatum, called Rowallane, grows in the centre of a paved area laid out in the form of a Celtic Cross. In the outer walled garden is to be found the original plant of the popular quince, Chaeomeles japonca Rowallane. There is much more to admire both in the Spring and Summer, but the visitor should, at the end of the garden, pause, look over the low stone boundary wall to the surrounding countryside, similar in outline - but empty, and marvel at what Hugh Armytage Moore has wrought here.
