Privy Garden & Labyrinth
The Privy Garden and Labyrinth each offer a refined take on the classic Tudor garden experience: the first, a stone wall-encased explosion of white-flowering foliage around which to relax and enjoy refreshment; the second, a winding journey through wildflowers and long grass, which features a magnificent array of tulips from April through to June.
