About

The romantic eight-acre gardens of King John's Lodge are as beautiful as they are tranquil and have captured the hearts of many a garden writer both in the UK and abroad. With the stunning house as its backdrop, the grounds boast formal lawns with a fountain and lily pond, a wild garden with ancient apple trees and a meadow. The nursery sells a great range of hard to find plants and the shop is crammed full of things for the home and garden, it is often described as an Aladdin’s cave. The new café serves tea and coffee with homemade cakes and a range of snacks and has stunning views over the Weald.
