Italian gardens and orangery

The romantic and extremely unique Orangery, designed by architect Matthew Digby Wyatt, dates back to 1872 and houses a large central pond, home to around 150 gold fish.

The majority of planted beds are made up of hardy species including Eucalyptus, Ficus, Camellia and many varieties of Fuchsia, creating a beautiful and delicate display throughout the summer months.

The garden surrounding the Orangery consists of J.M. Blashfield white terracotta urns, clipped English yew and mature trees.
