Many local gardens participate in the Open Gardens scheme and some villages have specially designated Open Garden Days.
Somerleyton Hall (30 minutes) has a wonderful maze and then there’s the formal gardens at Raveningham (25 minutes) See the huge gardens at Heveningham Hall from afar (unfortunately there’s no entrance save on special Open Days).
Wootens of Wenhaston (10 minutes) is a nationally-known Perennials Nursery and Redisham Hall Nurseries is well worth a visit for keen gardeners or even for the not so keen as it’s in a beautiful setting on the Redisham Hall Estate – on Open Days explore the walled garden.
Further afield (35-40 minutes) are the sensational Helmingham Hall Gardens
