Hunting Brook featured on BBC Gardeners World
We're delighted to see Hunting Brook, one of our members gardens, featured on BBC's Gardeners' World.
The gardens at Ballintubbert have been described as ‘An enchanting work of art - intimate and extraordinarily peaceful”.
The historic gardens at Ballintubbert have been expanded with an Arts & Crafts influence to include an impressive variety of over 40 ‘garden rooms’ and pedimented yew cloisters within 14 acres.
Of particular note is the Sir Edwin Lutyens design water garden complimented by Gertrude Jekyll style planting schemes.
There are wild flower meadows and woodlands influenced by William Robinson’s approach to ‘wild gardening’ in contrast to the formal lime walks that flank a hundred meter canal in the more classical gardening tradition.
The gardens are open to view every Thursday from 10am to 5pm
(April to September)
Very occasionally the gardens may be closed with a private event - please check our Facebook page for details
Admission €5 (children under 8 free)
Guided tours available by appointment
Allow 2 hours and please feel welcome all day. Relax & savour what lies ahead - this is a rich experience of the senses
