About The Lodge

From the extensive spring bulbs to the late summer perennials this garden is constantly changing throughout the year and there is usually plenty to see. We welcome groups but are very happy to open for individuals too. It’s a large garden with an emphasis on biodiversity and we don’t have time to find all the weeds. You can follow us on Instagram @alicewardthomas.
