Acorn Bank Garden & Watermill Description

Ancient oaks and the high enclosing walls of this delightful garden keep out the worst of the Cumbrian climate, resulting in a spectacular display of shrubs, roses and herbaceous borders.

Sheltered orchards contain a variety of traditional fruit trees and the famous herb garden is the largest collection of medicinal and culinary plants in the North.

A circular woodland walk runs along Crowdundle Beck to Acorn Bank watermill, which although under restoration, is open to visitors. The house is not open to the public.
