The house and grounds are open 1:30 to 5pm each day in the summer.We did the tour of the house, Little Miss doing the kids' King of Spain spy quiz, and little W looking for the original Jemima Puddleduck, and headed into the gardens for some exercise.
We didn't find any frogs in the pond, but while Little W was looking, his sisters disappeared.
They were hiding inside this tree!The walls of the garden are covered in fruit trees - grapes on the wall by the flower beds, and apples, plums and pears along the side of the house by the agapanthus.
It was very tempting to pick some.We hadn't been on the Park Walk before, so we did that too. You get a pleasing vista of the hall.
The walk is only about a mile, but beware of the sheep - their droppings are everywhere.

I just found this blog tonight. My ancestors came from Rougham in Suffolk in the mid 1800's to Australia.
It has been a joy to see photos of the countryside in Suffolk and your pleasant commentary on your trips around the area.
Hi Anonymous,
Thanks for the kind comments. It's good to hear that people are finding it interesting.
John.
