A beautiful place for weddings and events
…. this utterly dreamy garden … undoubtedly one of the great surviving early C18th gardens …. to me what makes it so magical is the contrast between the geometry and the softness. The woods are alive; thick with honeysuckle and woodpeckers … Perhaps the best time to visit is in June when the place is awash with orchids. Rapture!
