Minterne Gardens

Landscaped in the manner of 'Capability' Brown in the 18th century, Minterne's unique garden has been described by Simon Jenkins as "a corner of paradise". 20 wild woodland acres abound with magnolias, rhododendrons and eucryphias, providing a new vista at each turn, with small lakes, streams and cascades. Over 200 maples and acers provide stunning autumn colouring. Home to the Churchill and Digby families for 350 years, the house is open for organised groups only.
