This wonderful topiary garden near Kendal feels like a sculpture park or a 3-D Cubist art exhibition. The pieces on show however are large, 300-year-old yew trees, some sculpted and clipped over the centuries into rigid geometric shapes, while others display apparently overgrown and runaway curves and bulges. Bright flower beds neatly boxed-in relieve the dark back-drop. This garden delights and amazes - just be prepared for a slightly surreal experience!
