The Hall's gardens are open to the public, however the grounds around the house are secluded and private, solely for the use of our guests. There is an excellent seasonal cafe in the converted coach house next to the garden centre and there is free access for our guests to the commercial gardens. The house was notably the location for ITV's Ladette to Lady!
