Description
Hidcote is a world-famous Arts and Crafts-inspired garden nestled in a North Cotswold hamlet, created by passionate plantsman and talented designer, Major Lawrence Johnston. Covering an area of 10.5 acres the garden takes visitors on a journey through intimate formal areas revealing a different atmosphere or new vista at every turn.
Smaller, more formal garden ‘rooms’ near the house, give way to more natural areas that blend in with the surrounding countryside further away. There is a central axis running from East to West and another North to South, forming corridors off which the garden rooms can be found, each one with its own character and personality.
Price starts from £12.10 for Adults(18 years and over), £6.10 for Children(5-17 & under 5s free) and £18.20 for Family(1 adult & 2 children). If you are looking for Best place for day out with kids and families then this is the perfect destination offering fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories for everyone.
The history of Hidcote: For centuries, the hamlet of Hidcote Bartrim led a quiet rural existence. Located 600 feet above sea level in the northern Cotswolds, its sole purpose was agriculture. All of this changed in 1907, however, when Lawrence Johnston purchased the estate on behalf of his mother. The National Trust began caring for Hidcote in 1948 and has now been looking after this historic garden for more than 75 years.
