These beautiful gardens are sited on the remains of a medieval mill-stone quarry.
The 4 acres of Lea Gardens woodland garden contain a unique collection of over 500 rare varieties of rhododendrons and azaleas.
There are also many beautiful kalmias.
The quarry site has created an excellent rock garden with a huge number of alpines, dwarf conifers, acers, heathers and spring bulbs.
New woodland walks have been created with ornamental trees.
Bird-boxes have been attached to many of the trees and the gardens are full of the sound of bird song.
