When you wander around our woodland (we reopen on the 11th *wink *wink), you might notice a new feature. This “dead hedge” has been assembled using materials collected as part of our woodland maintenance.
Not only does this dead hedge provide a habitat for insects and beetles to thrive, it is also a great source of feed for little mammals such as hedgehogs! Our dead hedge is providing a super-shield from the cold winter winds for our bee hives located just behind.

Quex Garden looks rather beautiful at the moment with its vibrant colours and wonderful wildlife. Our gardeners really do work so hard to make the grounds look fabulous!
