Autumn reflectionsDISCOVER THE MAGIC of a garden for all seasons, from the fresh delicate Primroses and Bluebells in Spring, to the spectacular and vivid colours of the Candelabra Primulas, Azaleas and Rhododendrons in early Summer - this garden has something to delight you all year round.

Fairhaven Garden is a unique mix of ancient woodland, more recent plantings, a network of waterways and a large private broad. The garden is 100% organically managed and uses many traditional techniques such as coppicing and Chroming. The resulting environment is habitat to a huge range of flora and fauna, both wild and cultivated.

The garden is home to a large number of birds – 95 recorded species throughout the season, and some of Norfolk’s rarer residents such as the Otter, the Swallowtail butterfly and the Norfolk Hawker Dragonfly, their presence being testament to our style of gardening.
