Tudor House

One acre family garden featuring woodland, spring bulbs, lawns, greenhouse, pond, fire pit, sculptures and the owners' impulse plant purchases. A new vegetable patch and fruit cage were hastily established before the garden opened last year; come and see the progress and witness the battle with dry shade and perennial weeds after last summer's drought.

About Tudor House

One acre family garden that started with a plan 15 yrs ago but subsequently fell victim to whimsical impulse plant purchases! It features woodland, lawns, greenhouse, pond, fire pit, sculptures and oak framed pavilion. Three trees were felled in 2024 giving way to a re-vamping of woodland planting, a new vegetable patch and fruit cage. Witness the battle with summer drought, dry shade and perennial weeds.
Parking is on street, no on-site parking available.
Gravel drive which may be a challenge for wheelchair users.
