Visit The Garden
The stunning walled garden is here for all to stroll in and enjoy.
All activity at PKG revolves around the garden. A south-facing paradise with a myriad of plants, fruit and vegetables to gaze at, smell, pick, and eat. At the heart of the operation is head gardener Annie Shutt, who can be found tending to the beds and borders and would be delighted to meet you amongst the greenery. As the seasons come and go, the garden provides a glorious setting for us all to enjoy some time exploring our senses.
Each month, Annie gives us some insight into garden goings-on. Read her wonderful ‘Tales from The Garden’ blog here:
