The 10 acre garden encloses a variety of smaller gardens providing surprises and contrasts as it gradually unfolds. The walls of the 17th Century manor house support unusual climbing roses, clematis and shrubs, while the luxuriant borders will delight the plant enthusiast. Further away a newly established wildflower meadow and a five acre bluebell wood provide pleasant walks in Spring. History: The garden was originally laid out in 1925 by the grandparents of the present owner. Local Inns: Olde Coach House Inn, Ashby St. Ledgers Accomodation: Restaurants: Village/Town/Sightseeing:
