Swiss Garden and places to stay nearby

A visit to The Swiss Garden takes you back to the early 19th century, when an interest in ornamental gardening and picturesque architechture was combined with a passion for 'Swiss Vogue'. The Swiss Garden is a unique and beautiful example from one of the great periods of English gardening.
Within just 10 acres you can wander among splendid shrubs and rare trees; around tiny islands and ponds; and over intricate ironwork bridges. At the centre of this romantic scene is a tiny thatched Swiss Cottage lined with intricate fretwork and perched on a grassy knoll.
