Discover the Charm of Sheffield Park and Garden Acres

Nestled in the heart of the Sussex countryside, Sheffield Park and Garden offers a delightful escape into a world of natural beauty and historical intrigue. With its Grade I listed gardens, this horticultural masterpiece has been shaped by the visionary hands of 'Capability' Brown and Humphry Repton, creating a landscape that has enchanted visitors for centuries.

At the heart of Sheffield Park are four serene lakes, each reflecting the sky and surrounding foliage like a mirror. The paths meander through glades and wooded areas, inviting you to explore the rich tapestry of plant life from around the globe. Every corner of the garden tells a story, from the majestic Pulham Falls to the exotic Palm Walk, each feature a testament to the estate's storied past.

Beyond the gardens, the historic parkland stretches over 300 acres, offering a glimpse into its varied history. Once a deer park and a WWII camp, it now serves as a grazing ground for livestock and a playground for nature enthusiasts. The River Ouse meanders through this landscape, its floodplain transformed into a vibrant wildlife haven, home to kingfishers, birds of prey, and a kaleidoscope of butterflies and dragonflies.

After a day of exploration, the Coach House Café awaits with a selection of cakes, sandwiches, and hot lunches, while The Shant offers takeaway refreshments by the lake. Don't forget to visit the shop by the Visitor Reception, where you can find unique gifts, local produce, and even a second-hand bookshop.

Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply in search of a peaceful retreat, Sheffield Park and Garden is a must-visit destination. And if you're considering making this enchanting area your home, we at Burnett's would be delighted to assist with your property needs.
