Scampston
Hall - An
inspired contemporary garden in
Yorkshire
, newly planted in the 4½ acre 18th Century walled garden at Scampston
and opened to the public for the first time in 2004.
Designed by the internationally acclaimed Piet Oudolf, winner of Gold and
Best in Show at
Chelsea
in 2000, his use of grasses and perennial meadow planting ensure year
round interest, with a late spring border for keen plantsmen. The garden
is divided into a series of spaces, each with a character of its own.
There is a long border walk, under an avenue of 200 lime trees, around the
perimeter wall with mainly spring flowering shrubs and under planting.
Many rare plants are available for sale and the restaurant offers lunches,
snacks and tea/coffee.
