An unusual octagonal walled kitchen garden, designed by Capability Brown for John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute, former Prime Minister and First Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Successive owners have added numerous heated glasshouses, most notably the magnificent range built by Mackenzie and Moncur for Sir Julius and Lady Wernher. Now sadly dilapidated, it awaits restoration. The garden is the focus of a fascinating restoration project, with courses and talks offered. Talks and tours of the garden can be organised for groups by prior appointment.
Compartmentalised Edwardian garden on a grand scale, with stone pergola, statuary and fernery.
Private garden, not currently open to the public. On the banks of the River Tavy, just south of the Lopwell Dam, the gardens once provided produce for Maristow House, formerly the seat of Lord Roborough. 3 acres within the walls with another 2 outside. Two glasshouses awaiting restoration, mushroom house, stores, etc.
Ten acres of Edwardian gardens set in an 800 acre estate. Work has begun on the derelict walled kitchen garden, which will be open for specialist talks and courses. For more details contact Claire Francis 07952 486015.
