Miserden Garden, near Cirencester

The Garden at Miserden near Cirencester, winner of the Historic Houses Garden of the Year Award 2018, is a lovely, timeless walled garden with spectacular views over a deer park and rolling Cotswold hills beyond.

• The garden was designed in the 17th century and still retains a wonderful sense of peace and tranquillity. There are extensive yew hedges, including a notable topiary yew walk designed by the architect Sir Edwin Lutyens who also designed a wing of Miserden Park. The Park was built in 1620 and although the house is not open to the public, it provides a wonderful backdrop to the garden especially when covered in Wisteria in the Spring.
• The Garden is well known for its magnificent mixed borders, amongst the longest in private ownership. They contain a wonderful wide range of roses, clematis, dahlias, shrubs and herbaceous plants that provide colour right through from spring to autumn.
• Other magical features of this garden which has spanned generations include a unique Sycamore tree that has grown through a Cotswold stone wall, grass steps, an ancient mulberry tree planted in 1620, a beautifully tranquil parterre and a rill with fountain and stone summerhouse.
• There is a nursery selling a wonderful variety of plants and a café based in a converted Edwardian glasshouse that also hosts Pop Up Restaurants in the evenings.
• Miserden is a family-run, rural estate overlooking the Golden Valley in an area of outstanding natural beauty in the Cotswolds. As well as the garden, the estate encompasses a quaint Cotswold stone village, 850 acres of woodland, a lake, farmland and rolling hills, all providing a sanctuary for wildlife and a tranquil escape for visitors.'
