The walled garden holds a wide variety of plants, many of them tender.

Brief history of site

The woodland gardens were developed from the early-20th century onwards under a mixed deciduous and coniferous canopy and contain internationally renowned collections of rhododendrons, a pond garden and a rock garden. The early-18th-century walled garden was reconstructed in the early-20th century as a formal terraced garden.
