Yes, the gardens are open as usual!. 9am to 5pm. The purchase of Foxglove Spires was finalised on the 18th Nov and we are in the process of painting the interior of the house. Next will be the exterior and then the shops.
We will be taking up residence in the cottage around the 20th Dec. We have lots of plans but first we will be immersing ourselves in the environment and getting a feel for how to continually expand on the existing beauty of the property and gardens.
The essence of the gardens will be maintained ensuring there will always be a mixture of peace & tranquillity, romance, fairy tale like charm & quaint English elegance.
Our aim is to bring a fresh vibrancy to the property working with the resident business owners (The Spires Nursery, Vintage Poppy, Love at First Bite Cafe & Tilba Treasures) on ways & ideas to add to the overall experience of Foxglove Spires. We want people to come enjoy, time and time again, the spectacular seasonal transformations and new highlights of the gardens.
Along with landscape gardening, another of our passions is providing exceptional five star Bed & Breakfast accommodation. In the very near future we will be offering just a small handful of stunning & elegantly designed rooms for those wishing to spend a night or more in the gorgeous surrounds.
We are extremely pleased to be the new custodians of these beautiful and historic gardens and look forward to the creative process ahead.
