TUDOR PLACE | OPEN Thursday – Sunday. Proof of full vaccination required. Click for tickets & info.

Explore

The Tudor Place grounds were continuously cultivated and improved upon by six generations of the Peter family from 1805 to 1983. The primary layout is distinguished by the pastoral, English-landscape-style South Lawn on the south side of the Historic House, which contrasts with the European-style formal gardens on the north side of the property. A series of garden rooms connects these anchoring elements over 5 ½ acres. The design is further supported by a framework of boxwood, a central axis, water features as focal points, and strategic views directed to key areas.

Garden maps available at the Visitor Center upon arrival. Download the Uniguide audio tour app and search Tudor Place to hear more garden stories.
