The Sunken Garden was laid out in a 1600s Italian Baroque style. A tiered pathway borders the lower garden area, which contains flower beds and sheltered seating.

With a coastal location, its chalky alkaline soil has both advantages and disadvantages for plants. While good drainage is an advantage, in long hot breezy Thanet summers, its soil dries out very quickly. Plants here in the garden have been selected to thrive in this unique coastal region. They must withstand regular northeasterly, salt-laden winds and the maritime microclimate.
