About Kirkham Farm

A country garden that has evolved over the last 50 years. The garden has fabulous views over the neighbouring farm land. It has mixed borders that have a succession colour throughout the growing season, starting with clouds of snowdrops, then bulbs and alliums. After that the herbaceous plants take over. We are attempting to establish a wildflower bank surrounding the tennis court, time will tell ! There are good established trees and shrubs with a tiny pond leading to the tennis court. Several hedges make secluded corners with splashes of colour.
We have a gravel garden and raised beds for vegetables and areas kept for cutting flowers and growing on young plants.
Teas will be served in a beautiful barn adjacent to the house.

Good parking. Access to wheel chairs is possible around most areas.
