Lifestyle | Foodie | Family | Bryony on Instagram: "Walled Garden Baumber đźđ¸
The whole circus went: myself, Dottie, my sister and her baby, plus Mum and Nana - because nothing says ârelaxing day outâ like four generations with two new babies and the constant soundtrack of "the baby is hungry againâ
The place itself? Gorgeous. A 19thâcentury doubleâwalled kitchen garden turned into a plantâloverâs playground, complete with lake, tropical house and enough bunting to make Pinterest weep. Itâs free to get in (dangerous, because youâll spend it all in the tearoom anyway), dogâfriendly and run by people who clearly know their way around both a trowel and a Victoria sponge.
We had lovely food - fresh, colourful and the kind of salad that makes you feel virtuous enough to justify cake. The babies were entertained by cuddles and the rest of us got to pretend we were having a calm, civilised lunch.
10/10 would recommend if you like flowers, cake and the smug glow of âweâre making memoriesâ while secretly counting down to nap time.

About (sourced from Walled Garden Baumberâs own official site, the Visit Lincolnshire tourism listing and a feature guide on Lincoln and Beyond)
⢠Itâs a 4âacre doubleâwalled garden in Baumber, near Horncastle, Lincolnshire, originally the 19thâcentury kitchen garden for Stourton Hall (demolished in 1955).
⢠The site was derelict when designer and photographer duo Sonia and David Elton took it on in 2006. They restored it from the ground up, adding creative new features while preserving its history.
⢠They first opened the gates to the public in 2016 for Friday afternoons - the response was so positive that by 2017 the old potting shed had become a tearoom, with plant sales and events added.
⢠Today itâs open all year round with free entry, dogâfriendly policies and a mix of quirky planting areas, a lake, tropical house and deckchair lawns.
⢠The tearoom serves homeâbaked food with vegan and glutenâfree options, often using local produce - which we thoroughly enjoyed trying their menu!
⢠Itâs also a wedding and events venue and hosts seasonal markets, workshops and festive events."
