This beautiful artwork is part of the Nutcote collection. It looks like the artistic talent of the Gibbs' family runs deep. See this artwork and more by May's father when you visit Nutcote.

This winter, come and enjoy the flowers in Nutcote's garden!

Did you know that Nutcote features a beautiful garden, filled with flowers that bloom through all seasons. May and J.O's favourite flowers were roses - they even dug up parts of the lawn for more space for flower beds!

These blossoms are now maintained by our wonderful volunteer gardeners.
