Beautiful Gardens – A Hidden Gem in Norwich

A country manor House with beautiful gardens is like the icing on the cake.

The beautiful gardens at Hellesdon Manor House are over 200 years old.

Including a lush verdant lawn with beautiful stripes set off the picturesque  location.

From the beautiful gardens you can hear the flow of the River Wensum outside the golden gates, gently meandering along the country lane.

Additionally, mature majestic trees fill the gap between the green grass and the blue sky.

The beautiful gardens are unique with  their split levels, rolling banks, follies and hidden treasures.

The Features: 

One of the really interesting features is an ancient church window that sits proudly on the bank overlooking the lawns.

Pretty roses stand proudly in front of the church window, with the backdrop of a 150 year old holly tree.

The beautiful gardens  boasts a delightful grotto, that when you looking into this shows a reflection of your true love.

The white tiered fountain stands high  on the bank surrounded  by beautiful  box hedge and next to the fountain there are two large stone lions guarding the grounds.

The peace and tranquility in the unique setting next to the River Wensum in Norwich are magical.

Planting: 

The garden has apple and pear trees that are splayed and they sit neatly with clementas and roses clambering over.

Over five hundred newly planted yews are neatly positioned and waiting to grow into a lush green hedge.

A walk in the gardens gives you peace and tranquility to relax and unwind.

The gardens host many garden games and  nothing is more English than a game of croquet with a tall glass of Pimms on a summers day.

The garden levels make excellent photo opportunities and will continue to as they mature and we plant more varieties of native and exotic species.

Helleson Manor house is framed with Virginia creeper that marks the passing of  the seasons, with the Jasmin fragrance is a joy to experience.
