Mottisfont Abbey Gardens

Mottisfont Abbey in Hampshire is famous for its Rose Gardens set within a walled garden.  
Fabulous scents from old fashioned roses trail walls, pergolas, arches and abound everywhere. Other plants intermingle giving a fantastic picture of intense colours. 
The roses are best in the last 2 weeks of June but much is dependent on the weather.

Plenty more to see within the walled garden with lovely lavender walk and colourful herbaceous gardens and a small lavender parterre close to the Abbey. This is a must visit garden in June.
The grounds are now open most of the year and there is a new winter garden ( around 0.5 acre ) which is starting to mature. There are also walks some of which are guide led.
The historic Abbey is also a must see with many superb rooms, furniture and decorations.
