Discover the rich social history and stunning heritage of Como's gardens on this 45-minute guided tour, led by our knowledgeable National Trust Guides.

Originally designed by renowned Victorian landscaper William Sangster, Como’s gardens span almost six acres and feature a treasure trove of botanical beauty. Explore fine, mature trees and shrubs dating back to the mid-19th century, as well as hidden gems such as the Elias Stone Garden, the charming Kitchen Garden and a Paul Bangay-designed interpretation of a classic perennial border.

These gardens are lovingly maintained by our dedicated Head Gardener, a team of five gardeners, and a passionate group of volunteers.
