House Gardens
A stone farmhouse with a woodland garden specialising in Himalayan
plants, started in 1950 by Bobby & Betty Masterton. Their daughter, Wendy Mattingley, and
her husband took over the garden in 1987. Cluny House Garden has an important collection of Asiatic
primulas including candelabras and a large collection of Trilliums, Arisaemas, Lilliums, Erythroniums
and specimen trees including the widest girthed Sequoiadendron in the UK.
The garden is also
very important for a population of Red Squirrels. Cluny is cultivated organically with no pesticides
or insecticides.
