My visit to Hidcote Gardens was on June 9th as part of another visit to Snowshill Manor, nearby. Hidcote is regarded as one of the great gardens of England.
It was designed and created in the arts & Crafts style, by the Horticulturalist Major Lawrence Johnson. It is arranged as a series of outdoor rooms, each with a different character and separated by walls and hedges. The garden is famous for its rare shrubs & trees too.
The property and surrounding land is 300 acres. It certainly takes a lot of walking around to explore it all. But it is well worth it.
It is located near Chipping Campden in the village of Hidcote Bartrim, within the Cotswolds.
It is yet another National Trust garden. Tearoom & resturant and plant sales are on site too.
