Balcombe Gardens

Within the Balcombe AONB there are three quite different gardens that are full of variety and interest, which will appeal to plant lovers. In the village, Winterfield is a country garden packed with uncommon shrubs and trees, herbaceous borders, a summerhouse, pond and wildlife area. At nearby Stumlet the garden is restful, there are places to sit and enjoy a little peace, scent and colour. Redesigned to inc interesting plants for lasting enjoyment by different generations. A garden to watch develop in the future. Sorry, due to unforeseen circumstances 46 Westup Farm Cottages will not be opening as part of the group.
