Calke Abbey - Open Garden for NGS
With peeling paintwork and overgrown courtyards, Calke Abbey tells the story of the dramatic decline of a country-house estate. The productive kitchen garden, impressive collection of glasshouses, garden buildings and tunnels hint at the work of past gardeners, while today the flower garden, herbaceous borders and unique auricula theatre providing stunning displays all year.
