About Bradford Tracey House

A pleasure garden set around a Regency hunting lodge combining flowers with grasses, shrubs and huge trees for a natural and joyful space. It is planted for productivity and sustainability giving harvests of wonderful flowers, fruits, herbs and vegetables (and weeds!). There are beautiful views over the lake, forest walks, large blowsy borders and an oriental treehouse garden. May is a great time to see the ancient wisteria flowering as it winds around the veranda and the camassia drifting in the long grass under the cherry tree.

Not wheelchair friendly as mostly gravel, grass and stepping stones but disabled parking near the house. No dogs. House not open.
