The Garden at Miserden

The Garden at Miserden

Winner of Historic Houses Garden of the Year 2018, this lovely, timeless garden, with spectacular views over a deer park and rolling Cotswold hills beyond, 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 Lutyens as well as some magnificent mixed borders, which contain a wide range of roses, clematis, shrubs and herbaceous plants that provide colour right through from spring to autumn.

An ancient mulberry tree, believed to be planted in 1620, and the rill with fountain and stone summerhouse, built to commemorate the Millennium, are two other magical features in the history of this garden which has spanned generations. The Garden at Miserden truly is a hidden gem in the very heart of the Cotswolds.

The Cafe at Miserden

Converted from one of the beautiful old glasshouses in the former kitchen garden, the cafe serves exceptional coffee and delicious, seasonal food.  It is a great place to meet with family or friends or to relax after a walk around the stunning Miserden countryside or garden.

The Nursery at Miserden

There is also a traditional independent nursery at Miserden, offering a truly inspiring and comprehensive range of plants in a beautiful location high up in the Cotswold Hills.

The magnificent period glasshouses form a spectacular backdrop to a collection of plants, but also conjure up the atmosphere of a bygone age.

Along with the unique location there is an unusual choice of plants, including herbaceous perennials which have been grown on site (a giddy 800 feet up) with oodles of passion and care. So not only will you know where your new plants have been raised, you can be sure they are tough and hardy and used to the local climate.
