The Gardens

In 2022 we had a wonderful variety of gardens open to visitors. The impressive Prospect Tower built in 1812 in the grounds of Saltfleetby House can be climbed, offering amazing views of the surrounding countryside. Visitors can enjoy drinks at Grove Farm's Hawaiian style outdoor bar and see the upside down tree! See a miniature fairy village and play lawn games at Elder House where tea and cakes are also on offer. Homemade cordial, snacks and treats are available at Greenock. The historic Mill House, has gorgeously kept grounds filled with a great variety of plants and flowers, lovingly and expertly looked after by the owners. The old school that closed down in 2016 after 165 years, is now converted into a cafe and social hub with a new fishing pond in the grounds, where villagers can also buy plants, enjoy events, a lovely cup of tea and make use of the toilets!
