HISTORY OF KIFTSGATE COURT GARDEN
Heather Muir created the garden at the 19th century Kiftsgate House from sloping woods and was helped by. Heather was helped by her lifelong friend Lawrence Johnston who created Hidcote just 1 mile away. Since then the Garden has been developed and improved by two more women gardeners, the present one being Anne Chambers.
What to see?
- Walk down steep paths to a beautiful pool on a terrace which is hidden from the rest of the garden, with the most fantastic views over the Cotswolds as well as plenty of places to sit to take in the atmosphere.
- There are tulips in the Spring, but the roses are the true highlight of the garden - in June they scramble over trees and shrubs, but there are more formal shrub roses too!
- There is a modern Garden Pool which was created for reflections and gives shade in the summer.
This garden should not be missed and is one of our favourites in the Cotswolds.
