Just across the Shropshire border this magical 12 acre garden was created in 1939, when Colonel Harry Clive began his transformation of a disused Victorian quarry for his wife Dorothy.

Today the garden boasts a spectacular woodland waterfall, thousands of spring bulbs, dazzling azaleas and Rhodendrons in late May. Fabulous summer border, a scree and watergarden.

Homemade baking and light lunches available in the delightful tearoom, with fabulous views of Staffordshire and Shropshire from the tearoom lawn.

Open 1st April to 30th September 2012. Open every weekend in October 2012.
