The Cotswolds region is famous for its gardens many of which are open for public visiting. Some of the beautiful Cotswold gardens are privately owned and special arrangements have to be made to visit.

The owners of these gardens have a tremendous pride about their own individually designed and styled gardens and in most cases represents many years of hard work and total dedication.

The Garden

Stone House Garden is a 2½ acre Cotswold garden that has been created over the last 18 years. This cottage garden is made up of a series of different rooms that flow around the house each holding their own unique magic.

Stone House Garden PlantsA plantswoman's paradise full of surprises. This English garden has been designed specifically to compliment Stone House and the Cotswold countryside beyond, everything in harmony with nature. No spraying and lots of good food makes happy plants.

The soil at Stone House Garden is heavy acid clay, unusual for the Cotswolds which enables us to grow a large range of perennials and trees, but no tender ones as the frost is cruel in winter.

At Stone House Garden particular attention is paid to bulbs. Snowdrops, Scillas and Hellebores brighten the Woodland in early spring and the garden is a tapestry of glorious tulips in April and May. The Meadow Walk is host to naturalising Snakeshead Fritillaries, followed on by Camassias and late Narcissi.

Garden Visits

At Stone House Garden planting is for all seasons so this is somewhere to visit again and again to discover the treasure that each season reveals.
