    About

    Levens Hall is an atmospheric and fascinating Elizabethan mansion, home to the Bagot family. The Hall contains oak panelling, period furniture, Cordova leather wall coverings, paintings, the earliest English patchwork and other beautiful objects of the highest standard. The famous topiary garden laid out from 1694 is the oldest in the world and the cut yew trees, together with herbaceous borders, massive beech hedges, a pond surrounded by pleached limes, nuttery and vegetable garden provide year round interest.

    Levens Hall Gardens

    We had a lovely afternoon at Levens Hall. Although there is disabled parking we didn’t see it, but we weren’t too worried as we have a WAV vehicle with access at the back. Parking was free. My mum was in a wheelchair and I was pushing so I got in free. The gentleman in the ticket office was very friendly and helpful. The paths around the gardens are mostly gravel with some grass. I found it quite difficult to push the wheelchair on the gravel. The gardens are beautiful and the impressive Topiary made the gardens feel a bit like something from Alice in wonderland. There was level access to the gift shop. We didn’t visit the cafe but there is a little takeaway bakery with outdoor seating. The house isn’t accessible to wheelchairs because of its age but the gardens are worth visiting as long as you have someone fit to push a wheelchair over the gravel.
