The Ornamental Garden
Cornus Mas hedging encloses cream coloured Hydrangeas, which are allowed to grow high and create a shaped "ceiling", in the centre of which lies a bubbling pool spilling into shallow rills that are perfect for splashing and paddling.

Take a look around The Ornamental Garden
The Gates
The fine wrought-iron sixteenth-century gates were bought by the fourth Duke in Italy during the 1850's and restored by local Northumbrian specialists in 2000.
Malus "Red Sentinel" (crab apple)
The central spaces are enclosed by espaliered Malus "Red Sentinel" (crab apple), while the low-growing Malus "Evereste" forms clipped hedges as a backdrop to the triangular borders. This was the first tree to be introduced here in the north border as part of the new design.
