![#Walled Garden │ Sibton Park Estate │ Suffolk
**Self-contained self-indulgence awaits behind the innocuous wooden door. The Daily Telegraph called our Walled Garden, ‘The Ultimate Party House' & it’s easy to see why. Cocooned by the original 20ft-high red brick walls, you leave the rest of the world behind when you step inside. Resting against the north-facing wall are what look like three huge neo classical glasshouses, but you’ll quickly discover there’s more to them than meets the eye. From the vaulted glass ceiling of the dining area to the cinema, games room, huge kitchen & beautiful stone fireplaces, these air conditioned greenhouses provide open plan living at its best — cinema room, games room, huge kitchen, sauna & hot tub are fertile for fun. Explore beyond the glazed rooms - through the wall, in fact — to discover how the original Victorian gardeners’ accommodation bothy & potting shed has been transformed into eight opulent, en suite king-size bedrooms. And when the sun’s out you’ll want to be out there too, BBQ dining on the terrace, relaxing in the hot tub, or simply kicking back among the flowers in your secluded, walled paradise.**
**Authentic walled garden & indulgent luxury retreat.
Originally created to grow the estate’s fruit, veg & flowers, The Walled Garden is now itself a vital ingredient for those in pursuit of self contained very private pleasure. Formal lawns & flowerbeds remain, but we’ve added a luxurious glazed retreat down the entire length of the garden’s north wall.**
