Entry £8 each, which will be donated to the owner’s charity. Free parking and plants for sale.

Gertrude Jekyll’s 1916 plans resonate throughout the garden with recent additions. Topiary area with Buxus and white roses, and climate change areas of drought-resistant, pest and disease-free species. Many unusual shrubs, trees, and roses, kitchen garden and greenhouses. Routes available for wheelchair users.

 To find it:-  Take the main A3 south from Guildford, leaving at the Thursley/Bowlhead Green junction (shortly before the tunnel), then follow Bowlhead Green sign left into French Lane and approx. 1 mile until the small green.  Turn left into Lower House Lane and follow until the end.  Alternatively, take the A 286 from Milford to Brook, then follow Bowlhead Green signs, turning right at the small green.  Both ways are very narrow roads, please take care!
