LINCOLNSHIRE TOURIST ATTRACTION OF THE YEAR
 
Welcome to 12 acres of ‘lost’ gardens. 400 years of gardening have created a peaceful and settled atmosphere, enhanced by the beautiful valley surrounding it.

Until Winter 2001, these gardens had been completely abandoned for 50 years. In 2008, with six years of renovation under our belt, visitors can see more than just a restoration project. We have snowdrops, sweet peas, irises, David Austin Roses, 100 varieties of daffodils, and our popular cutflower garden. Seasonal collections are fully labelled.

There are walks, drifts of bulbs, meadow borders, auricula theatres, a cottage garden and a turf maze. We have a tearoom selling light lunches, teas and homemade cakes and a shop that stocks seasonal gardening gifts.
 
Just off the A1, in the middle of England, we are easy to visit and look forward to seeing you. Click here for Directions.
 
 

 
  
 
Week beginning Monday May 5th:
 
Thank goodness the weather was good for the bank holiday. We had lots of visitors who bought plants from local nurseries and enjoyed cream teas in the gardens. They were so popular that Ann was up baking at 5.00 am!
 
The weather is beautiful so we switch between planting out, mowing and watering. Despite a squirrel raiding our tulips the gardens still look great, particularly the site of the old hall as the blossom, daisies and white tulips mix together.

IN FLOWER NOW

The biennials are now in flower.We are really pleased with our new pink wallflowers grown from seed last year. The tulips are peaking and the swallows are back and starting to clear their nest sites. We have to dodge swallows swooping out of the potting sheds which have small holes especially for them.
