Our Gardens

Perennial gardens cover much of the property at Martin Hill Inn; this is just a small portion of them. Leading to the parking lot beyond the salt box-style garden shed is a winding stone path. 

Our garden was one of the delightful gardens spotlighted in June 2007 on the annual Portsmouth Pocket Garden tour. When you visit, you will note that we have added a wide and interesting variety of plantings, and many of the bushes have really flourished since this photograph was taken.

For those of you interested in gardening, some of the perennial varieties you will see in our woodland shade garden include:
