The 12 acre Dorothy Clive Garden is surprisingly intimate and informal. It embraces a
variety of landscape features, including a superb woodland garden, an
alpine scree, a damp garden and spectacular summer flower borders.
In spring it is full of blossom,
drifts of bulbs, priimulas and fabulous rhododendrons and azaleas.
Visitors can rest on the many garden seats provided throughout the
grounds and enjoy the tearoom's home-baking on the terrace lawn, whilst
taking pleasure from the lovely views of the surrounding countryside.
