Hidcote Manor Garden

About

Hidcote Bartrim is a world‑famous Arts and Crafts–inspired garden set in the rolling Cotswold hills near Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire. Designed by plant‑collector Major Lawrence Johnston between 1907 and 1938, the 10.5‑acre landscape is organised into intimate ‘garden rooms’, each with its own layout, colour scheme and season‑specific plantings. Visitors wander along a central axis that runs east–west and north–south, discovering terraces, ponds, lawns and orchards that blend formal borders with wild, natural surroundings. The garden’s low‑key charm is complemented by on‑site amenities such as Winthrop’s Café, a converted stable now home to a second‑hand bookshop, the Plant Centre stocked with a wide range of horticultural products, a Potted Shed and a chapel‑converted exhibition space. The National Trust hosts seasonal talks, exhibitions, and family‑friendly activities, making Hidcote a must‑visit for plant lovers, history enthusiasts and travellers seeking a peaceful pastoral escape.
