Follow paths through the magnificent themed gardens, enjoying the peace and tranquillity
The Temple
Graceful silver birch stand sentinel around this garden focal point, overlooking an ornamental lake in which the jewel colours of large koi can be glimpsed.
Garden of Peace
Tucked away and cocooned by hedges, relax and contemplate to the restful trickling of waterfalls and tranquil sounds of nature.
The heat-loving plants on the south-facing Terrace get the sun all day long.
Little Springs
“Each new life, no matter how brief, forever changes the world.”
Dedicated to children who have passed away, this area features soft planting and colourful flower beds.
Looking down across the Gardens, a barbican memorial holds plaques for babies who were born sleeping.
Garden of Time
“Love is Immortal. Death is only a Horizon.
A Horizon is the limit of our eyes”
Three round beds bisect this garden ‘room’, filled with colourful bedding plants.
Surrounding them, clipped conifers conceal stone benches where visitors can sit and reflect in peace.
Garden of The Sea
An ocean of blue slate, flecked with tumbled glass chippings which sparkle like sunlight on water.
Water-lovers of all kinds are remembered in this special garden ‘room’. Rock-edged ‘island’ beds are planted with soft grasses and fragrant lavenders, surrounding large anchors, chains and a wooden jetty.
Hill of Roses
At the Garden’s highest point sits a series of circular beds, dotted with memorials and packed with beautiful, fragrant roses.
From vibrant oranges and sunny yellows, through to searing reds and blushing pinks, the roses’ velvety petals perfume the air all summer.
