A huge range of hot houses, contain a highly impressive collection of tropical plants, ferns and cacti. Ancient wisteria and clematis thrive on the high south facing walls. Two massive herbaceous borders are a riot of colour between June and October alongside the fountain and lawns. New black & white border designed by Matthew Wilson, Channel 4's 'Landscape Man'. Within the walled kitchen garden there are rare varieties of fruit and vegetables, herbs and spices.
