Kiftsgate Court, Gloucestershire in April

Not many gardens would sit happily in the same village as one of the most famous and iconic gardens in Britain, Hidcote, but Kiftsgate Court has always been able to hold its own as it has been nurtured and developed by three successive women of the same family.

Positioned on the north-western escarpment of the Cotswolds, the garden enjoys panoramic views across the Vale of Evesham to the Malvern Hills, these prospects are matched by the details of design and planting that are unveiled as you pass from one garden room to the next.
