The gardens at Broomfield Hall were designed by Victorian landscape gardener William Barron making them historically significant. Much of the gardens retains its original Victorian layout with winding woodland paths for you to explore.
In recent years, the appointment of a new head gardener Samantha Harvey and a large team of volunteers has led to the gardens being developed further including contemporary herbaceous planting, a subtropical area and modern rose garden.
There will also be the opportunity to see the restoration work carried out so far of the Japanese Garden, supported by the national Japanese Garden Society.
