The original Victorian owner's family can be traced back to the Cornish artist Henry Bone R.A. (1755-1834). In the past, there were 30+ gardeners and 500 linear feet of greenhouses.

Today, features abound in this inspirational summer garden which is so remarkable and overwhelming in its content. Agapanthus, Cannas, gingers, herbs, alpines and large numbers of herbaceous perennials. The 300' south wall grows subtropical climbers. Developing bamboo grove and alpine house. Beautiful teak Victorian greenhouses.
