ABOUT THE Garden Room
If you enjoy coming to the Christmas shop in autumn, then you’ll love the Garden Room for the remaining seasons! This smaller shop, adjacent to Roots Café, offers an eclectic selection where each item is chosen to enhance your living space without compromising your commitment to the environment.
The shop carries an assortment of dried flowers and seeds, vases made from glass, stone and ceramics, along with supplies for flower arranging. Additionally, you’ll discover exquisite candles, candlesticks and chandeliers that can help you create a delightful atmosphere at home as well as gardening accessories, treats for your dog and toys for children.
Blackthorpe Barn is a step-free location with dedicated accessible parking near the entrance and two accessible toilets, one in the cafe, and one in the courtyard.
Muddy Stilettos Regional Award Winner
What an honour to have been voted the 2024 Regional Muddy Stilettos Winner for the Best Lifestyle Store in Suffolk and Cambridgeshire!
Thank you to each one who voted for us – it made our year, especially considering we had only just opened the Garden Room a few months before.

Grab a bite of lunch
Just next door to the Garden Room Shop is Roots Café, serving breakfasts, lunches and coffee and cake, using tasty locally-sourced ingredients wherever possible.
Enjoy a wander
This year we are expanding the number of walks starting from Blackthorpe Barn, with Rougham Estate offering 18 miles of public footpaths and popular cycling routes, alongside additional permissive paths. Coupled with the café and the shop, this creates a superb destination for a relaxing day out in the Suffolk countryside and to enjoy the changing seasons.
