Borde Hill House was built by Stephen Borde n 1493. Stephenson Robert Clarke bought the House in 1893 and extended it and created the Garden. He planted the Garden with trees & shrubs brought back by the great plant collectors in the early 1900's. The Garden, set in 200 acres of parkland affords panoramic views over the North Weald AONB, is Grade II* listed by English Heritage and appeals to visitors of all ages. Spring is heralded by magnificent magnolias, rhododendron and azaleas, blending into summer with fragrant roses and herbaceous plants, developing into rich autumn borders before winter's architectural splendour. Distinctive formal \"garden rooms\", such as the Rose & Italian Garden, combine with informal areas like the Azalea Ring, Garden of Allah and Round Dell. Woodland paths and lakeside walks to explore. Pirate's Adventure Playground with picnicking facilities for families. Easy access for buggies and wheelchairs. Dogs on leads welcome. Tea Rooms, Jeremy's Restaurant (Good Food Guide 2006). Group visits of 20+ welcome.
