Cobham Hall

Landscaped for the 4th Earl of Darnley by Humphrey Repton, the gardens inc extensive tree planting, The Gothic Dairy, The Pump House and some of the classical garden buildings are also being renovated for all our visitors. The grounds yield many delights for the lover of nature, especially in Spring, when the gardens and woods are resplendent with daffodils, narcissi and a myriad of rare bulbs.
