If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

Beech Court Gardens

Situated in 9 acres, Beech Court Gardens was laid out in an informal way nearly 70 years ago using the natural contours of the previously farmed land. The delightful pond was originally dug as a drinking trough for horse, situated adjacent to the Oast House Tea Rooms, which provides an ideal spot to sit and enjoy your refreshments.
The nearby dell was probably mined for chalk although legend tells of its use for cock-fighting. You can still meet some fascinating breeds of poultry on your visit but all are very peaceful!
The garden was originally designed with Spring colour in mind. An exceptional collection of Acers and Rhododendron, along with numerous firs, oaks and pines which reflect the garden designer's admiration for Scotland's famous Inverewe gardens. Many rare and unusual trees grow here and are home to many species of bird.
The Gardens have been enhanced with island beds, climbing roses, many varieties of hydrangeas and with the Autumn colour it truly is a garden for all seasons.
