The Stonefarm

A two-acre garden in English landscape style with striking boulders arranged in harmony with the varied planting. This immediately explains the name of this garden. The largest boulder weighs as much as 15 tonnes!

In early spring the thousands of bulbous and tuberous plants bloom and in summer the roses are fragrant. Many varieties of Hemerocallis and hydrangeas, Tinus and Anna Scheltens love to collect. The Stonefarm has a Hosta trail in the forest edge along which a large collection of these species is planted. It is a challenge to go and see if any variety is missing! Enviable is the condition of the lawns over which you wander among the unusual trees and shrubs. A large natural pond with impressive riparian plants and a seat among rock plants to enjoy it. The owners are happy to tell you about their garden, which can be visited all year round by appointment.
