We are inviting visitors to join us for an evening walk through our Walled Garden and Glasshouses. Renovated by Hugo into a verdant retreat, now it acts as creative centre for the Foundation.
While strolling through the serene atmosphere, Head Gardener Toby Loveday will guide you through the history of the gardens. Toby will also discuss the garden team's plan for the space's future as a part of The Hugo Burge Foundation, and its new role as a source of creativity, inspiration, education and relaxation for residents and visitors alike.
You'll have the chance to explore a wide-variety of lush foliage and vibrant blooms, from flower-rich borders to fruit and vegetable patches.
The garden also boasts some of our most striking artworks, spanning from the 18th century to the present day. From living sculptures to an avenue of colonnades, visitors, whether art enthusiasts or garden lovers, will be captivated by the abundance of beauty on display.

The tour on May 29th will focus on the what it takes to manage the garden through the year, keeping it healthy, vibrant, and blooming.
