The Role

We are looking for a passionate, hands-on Weekend Gardener / Groundsman who takes real pride in their work and genuinely enjoys caring for outdoor spaces.

  • Supporting the wider site team in maintaining the appearance and presentation of the estate
  • Taking pride in preserving the beauty and heritage of the grounds

What We’re Looking For

  • A genuine passion for gardening and outdoor work
  • Someone proactive who “sees what needs doing” without being asked
  • Good attention to detail and pride in maintaining high standards
  • Reliable, hardworking and self-motivated
  • Able to work independently and as part of a team
  • Experience in gardening, grounds maintenance or estate care is preferred but not essential for the right person with the right attitude
  • An appreciation for working within a historic estate environment

  • Weekend-based role
  • Flexible opportunities available for either:
  • 24 hours per week, or
