La Seigneurie Gardens provide a tranquil contrast to the windswept wildness of the island's beautiful coast. The award-winning walled garden overflows with fascinating flowers and shrubs, offering a delight of colour, shape and scent throughout the year. The beautiful granite walls shelter many plants that can only survive under glass in other parts of the British Isles.
Beyond the walled garden, the grounds open into a variety of landscapes. Wander woodland paths down to the pond, where the ancient Monk's Well and a newly installed bridge await. A flight of steps brings you back up to the Archery Lawn, where a stumpery and grass walk now wind through the wooded area to the north. The garden is a haven for wildlife — birds and insects are abundant, with some species recently spotted in the British Isles for the very first time.
The fruit and vegetable gardens will inspire those who grow their own produce, and the sensory garden aims to stimulate all five senses. Lose yourself in the maze, wander among the rose beds, or simply soak up the peaceful atmosphere of these enchanting grounds.
For those who wish to go deeper, Tours of the House reveal the extraordinary story of the world's last feudal lords and their manor — a tale of piracy, occupation and assassination attempts. Led by the Seigneurial family themselves, each tour lasts one hour and is limited to ten guests, making for an intimate and remarkable experience. Advance booking is essential, though larger groups can be accommodated with sufficient notice.
