Constructed in 1920 by Mr Thomas Simpson, today Compton Acres gardens are acknowledged as one of the finest privately owned gardens in England.
Since 2003 the gardens have undergone a great deal of development, the gardens themselves have been refurbished to a high standard of horticulture including planting many thousand new plants to add interest to all groups of visitors. The garden has five main themed gardens joined by a series of links, including a sub-tropical area, Southern Hemisphere collection adding more variety to the planting styles in the garden.
