Liscombe House
The gardens surrounding C17 Liscombe House (not open), revitalised with designer Jinny Blom, blend history with renewal. A walled garden, orchard, restored ponds, and courtyard garden flourish with drought resistant planting, cut flowers, topiary, and a Millennium walk. Fruit and vegetables grow within the grounds, and the historic greenhouse shelters tender plants. Teas served in a C14 chapel.
