Enjoy a gentle afternoon garden walk at Longbush Cottage, perfect for those who prefer a more relaxed pace. Set across one hectare, the gardens feature a series of beautifully designed spaces, each with its own planting theme, all at their best in November.
This two-hour ramble includes plenty of time to explore, rest, and take in the surroundings. With numerous seating areas throughout the garden, it is well suited to participants with limited mobility. Two large glasshouses also provide sheltered spaces to enjoy should the weather be less than perfect.
Afternoon tea is included, with garden creator Luke on hand to share the story of Longbush Cottage and answer questions. Guests can also browse the onsite emporium, offering a selection of garden-themed gifts.
