Description of Garden

Designer: Henk Gerritsen with Strilli Oppenheimer

Naturalistic styled gardens set in an organic and bio-dynamic farm estate. There are themed walled gardens dating from the 17th century, with new naturalistic plantings which encourage a wealth of wildlife. Spectacular double borders in an avenue leading down from the house towards the lake and a grove of fine specimen trees, along with a lake and woodlands.

History of Garden

Owned by the Oppheimer Family now for 100 years, and 2010 special events to celebrate this.
