About Home Farm

This 9-acre garden has been adapted to cope well with drier conditions while maintaining a traditional farmhouse feel with more than 100 roses, including many highly fragrant old English varieties, complemented with honeysuckles. Mature herbaceous borders are packed with delphiniums and a wide variety of salvias. Hot-and-more border is a new look for 2025

The garden has evolved to manage drier conditions and eliminate the need for watering. A Mediterranean border, an aged olive tree and lavender-lined avenue between rows of cherry trees gives a taste of southern Europe. A ha-ha wall surrounds the formal garden, and the orchard has old local varieties of top fruit.

The wildflower area attracts a wide variety of birds, insects and butterflies; including some rare species. A pin oak recently introduced, with fine autumn foliage has recently been added, and a fruit cage and vegetable garden provides a homegrown food supply .

The large, south east -facing terrace overlooks the garden and gives far-reaching views.
