Welcome to our Gardens

Welcome to the 2025 season at Westonbury Mill.

Before I update you on the garden progress, I must report the sad news that Richard Pim, the creator of Westonbury Mill Water Gardens and its amazing follies, died late last year. Without Richard's vision, hard work and incredible skills, none of this would be here. He is a great loss and our sympathy goes to his wife and family.

​

We are now busy preparing the garden for the coming season with particular attention to clearing winter vegetation from the pond and cairn garden - critical if we want to prevent algae bloom once it warms up.​

​

We have now raised up the Japanese Tea House following a flood last winter. The Tea House itself is now completed, so you can walk over to it, go in and take a look. However, I am still to build a bridge going across to it as well as a walkway around it, so there are more phases to come!

I'm also pleased to let our regular visitors know that I have finally sorted out the leak to the rill, so, for the first time, it is finally working as planned!

​

We have also installed fibre optic broadband to the cafe and this will be made available to visitors free of charge. 

We look forward to meeting you this season.
