About Bryngwyn Hall

The garden was enlarged by my Grandparents in the early C20 taking in a portion of parkland. They erected a Ha Ha constructed of Silesian fossil stones and extended the garden into the park down to the lake. The house and garden fell into dereliction from the late 1930’s up until the primary restoration programme which I commenced in 1989. As the garden was left untouched for 50 years there is an interesting spectrum of wild herbs and plants in the long grass which it is our intention to preserve.

Many interesting mature trees and shrubs remain from earlier plantings including rhododendrons brought back by my grandfather Arthur Sandbach from Bhutan, Sikkim and Northern India.

I have planted extensive yew hedges to break up the garden and protect the rose garden and am following an on going improvement and restoration programme with exciting new planting.

Our most recent addition is a poison garden which now contains over 110 poisonous plants and continues to intrigue and amaze our visitors.

Spring: February / March/ April / May
Close to the drive is the winter flowering area which includes prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis’, varieties of hamamelis, mahonia, early flowering daphnes, corylopsis and chimnanthus. The woodland garden is carpeted with snowdrops progressing to a stunning show of thousands of daffodils, camassias and fritillaries in the long grass down to sides of the lake. Where we have, tetrapanax, primulas, primroses, hyacinths and a collection of tulips There is a later extravagant show of azaleas, camellias, rhododendrons, prunus, magnolias and the early tender leaves of the large collection of maples.

Summer: June / July/ August
The Rose garden is at its height in June and filled with delicious scents. There are two large herbaceous borders containing amongst other things asters, salvias, campanulas, phlox, hydrangeas, phygelius, tropaeolum speciosum, scabiosa gigantea, acanthus and a large collection of dahlias and geraniums. The large herbaceous borders are under their second phase of restoration.

Autumn: September / October / November
The time for autumn colour the large collection of maples, birch and malus come into their full glory at this time of the year. The extensive collection of hydrangeas are still showing good colour.
