About the event
A magnificent four acre garden set around a 17th century farmhouse in a lovely pastoral setting with wonderful panoramic views and not a road in sight or sound. There is much to enjoy and see; a 16th century courtyard, listed garden walls, gravel and palm area, unusual plants, yew rooms, vegetable garden, orchard and woodland area. Trenarth is gardened to promote abundant wildlife; water and bog features, a maternity roost of lesser horseshoe bats and plants to encourage birds, butterflies and insects all the year round. A quirky and child friendly garden, with a children's garden trail. Wander down the ancient green lane walk to the old animal pond, on through woods to Trenarth Bridge, then back up through another woodland footpath.
