About the garden
The gardens at Somerleyton Hall are renowned for their wide variety of splendid specimen trees, combined with sweeping lawns, formal gardens, majestic statuary and original Victorian features, including an aviary and 229ft long pergola covered in wisteria, roses and vines.
The main walled garden contains new borders filled with collections of botanically interesting and rare plants, as well as over 150 different large/giant hostas. The gardens are home to one of the finest yew hedge mazes, planted in 1846. They also include a formal garden, a double herbaceous border, a walled kitchen garden featuring a central herb garden surrounded by parterre with 50 plus cut flower beds, a white garden, a jungle garden, a rose garden with more than 1,000 roses and a newly revamped Victorian pond.
Please note: The garden is occasionally closed for private hire, so please check the website before travelling.
