King John´s Nursery & Garden

King John´s Lodge is a fine Grade II listed Jaco-bean manor house. The garden is open to visitors for most of the year.

The romantic eight-acre gardens of King Johns Lodge are as beautiful as they are tranquil and have captured the hearts of many a garden writer both in the UK and abroad.

With the stunning house as its backdrop, the grounds boast formal lawns with a fountain and lily pond, a wild garden with ancient apple trees and a meadow. By the front of the house, and a favorite with visitors, is a secret pond with a woodland walk featuring a statue of Oberon and Titania.

Nearby, sheep graze and white fantail pigeons flutter in the picturesque parkland which surrounds the southern and eastern sides of the house and gardens.
