Bourton House Garden |
||||||||||
|
The Cotswolds' best kept secret! An award-winning three acre garden surrounding a fine 18th century Manor House and Grade I listed 16th century Tithe Barn.
The garden features luxuriant terraces and wide herbaceous borders filled with stunning plant, texture and colour combinations and imaginative topiary that includes a topiary walk, knot garden and parterre.
Water features include a raised basket pond from the Great Exhibition of 1851. Hidden away in a secluded corner is a unique Shade House and, throughout the garden, you will find creatively planted pots. An 18th century raised walk provides an enticing link to the rolling Cotswolds hills beyond.
Beautiful to visit in any season, Bourton House Garden also presents a glorious late summer flourish when other gardens have run their course. The unusual, rare and exotic make this garden a plantsman's delight!
HHA/Christie's 'Garden of the Year' 2006.
