Event Details

By kind permission of Mr and Mrs Michael Samuels.

Mells Park is a Grade II listed Lutyens House standing in an outstanding example of an eighteenth century landscaped park and lake, also Grade II, set among the combes of the Mendip Hills.

The head gardener Peter Dennis will show us around the more formal parts of the garden (Lutyens) and explain the landscaping and views from the terraces near the house. There are also wonderful examples of ancient trees and garden buildings to be seen.

DGT members are welcome to wander in the park and down to the lake, cattle permitting, for as long as they wish after the guided tour.

Tea and cake will be provided by Mrs Samuels and her team.

What is the Handling Charge for?

To ensure tickets are delivered safely and securely and to keep the price as low as possible for you, the ticket buyer, Dorset Gardens Trust generally uses our E-ticket system unless otherwise stated.

For this service we charge a small Handling Fee to cover the debit/credit card processing fees, customer services, processing and distribution of tickets and our secure server costs. We always try to keep these costs to an absolute minimum. If you feel at any time that our prices are not fair or competitive we'd be happy to hear from you.

Delivery

If you have ordered physical paper tickets there is a further Delivery cost added to cover the delivery of your order through the Royal Mail network.

We always endeavour to keep these costs as low as possible to merely cover the costs of postage. We only charge you one Delivery cost per order so if there is a big group of you recommend purchasing larger amounts in one order.

When you purchase tickets through Dorset Gardens Trust, the full face value of the ticket is shown. This price is the price set by the event organiser and we pay this full amount to the organiser without any deductions.

Dorset Gardens Trust

We are a conservation charity working to protect the county's many historic parks and gardens for future generations.

We work with garden owners and local and national bodies to highlight, protect and encourage the conservation and restoration of designed landscapes, ranging from stately homes to public parks, cottage gardens to cemeteries. Principally funded by over 500 members, we run visits, lectures and events where members can share their interest and knowledge in a sociable atmosphere.
