This late May bank holiday weekend we are pleased to welcome a brand-new addition to Blackthorpe Barn: a Pop-Up Plant Stall hosted by Watsons Plants, the talented team behind the beautiful planting in our courtyard troughs.
Chris Watson will be setting up in the courtyard or, if the weather takes a turn, you’ll find him under cover nearby.
Join us from 10am–2pm on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday to browse a selection of quality plants and pick up expert advice to help your garden thrive this summer.

Blackthorpe Barn is situated just south of Junction 45 of the A14, three miles east of Bury St Edmunds, in the village of Rougham.
Look out for the entrance gates to a long tree-lined avenue at the White House junction, with the Barn on the right of the avenue.

If you’ve been to the Estate you will know we have lots of woodland with a remarkable collection of ancient and veteran oak and lime trees.
Many of these trees are hollow, with branches reaching down to the ground, showcasing their impressive age. They play a crucial role as habitats for thousands of species.
Currently, we’re conducting a survey to explore the diverse wildlife that inhabits these trees, including those near Blackthorpe Barn. We look forward to sharing the results with you this autumn! So watch this space!

Well, that didn’t take too long… we said the pumpkins could do with a drink, and overnight we had 5mm of rain! Not quite a soaking, but after such a dry stretch, we’ll take what we can get.
It’s come at just the right time to help the freshly planted pumpkins settle in. A bit more over the next week or so wouldn’t go amiss – fingers crossed the raindance keeps working (and only at night 😊).
Meanwhile, the rest of the crops on the estate will be soaking up the rain and moving along nicely now, including the Sunken Garden.
Let’s keep doing the raindance for a little bit longer!

Pumpkin season prep has officially begun!
We’ve just started planting the pumpkin seeds for our ever-popular October patch, and we’re already looking forward to seeing the field full of colour later this year to welcome families for a pumpkin extravaganza!
As much as we hate to say it, but fingers crossed for a bit of rain to help them establish.
We’ll keep you posted on their progress, but for now it’s all about patience, sunshine… and a few well-timed showers.
Roll on autumn!

It`s definitely time for a brew!
Sometimes, a cup of tea is exactly what you need. Whether you`re taking a breather, catching up with a friend, or just enjoying a moment to yourself – it has that magic way of making things feel a bit better. That`s why it`s important to celebrate it!
To celebrate International Tea Day, we’ve got a whole line-up of feel-good favourites, from bold Black Teas to calming Herbal blends and creamy Matcha Lattes.
And there’s something special for today... Our new Assistant Manager at Roots Cafe has been getting creative and come up with a Strawberry Iced Tea special. It’s made with fresh homemade strawberrry syrup and is light and fruity for a warm day.
If you fancy upgrading your tea break, pop into the Garden Room Shop – we’ve got a lovely range of mugs and cups, whether you’re into minimal style or fun prints.
