| Collection/special features | While the house has Priest Holes and other strange features, the garden is more restrained. |
| Dog friendly? | On leads around woodland and signed estate walks only |
| Child friendly? | A nice play area for younger children and the walk to the farm is well worth it if you have children with you |
| Description |
The restored garden has spring bulbs, a rose garden, summer border and stream garden – the old moat has become a sunken lawn and there are woodland walks and views of the Mersey basin. The National Trust is working on restoring the Victorian Garden which will be a new feature at this property. Home Farm, a few minutes from Speke Hall, is a Victorian farm building, restored and adapted to provide a restaurant, shop and visitor facilities, and offers estate walks, children's play area and orchard. |
