Bateman's Garden

  3.0/5 (1 ratings)

Gardenvisit Editorial

A seventeenth century house with a twentieth century garden made by Rudyard Kipling, who lived here 1902-36. One might expect the design to recall his love of India. But it is an 'Old English' Arts and Crafts garden of the type one dreams of when sipping gin and tonic by the Irrawaddy River, to fend off malaria. The garden has a tunnel made of pear trees, yew hedges, stone paths, a rose garden, pond, wild garden and herb garden.

    There is something about Batemans. The planting doesn't strike me as anything special but the combination of hedges, ponds, lawns and wildflower area just draws me in for repeat visits. Its the type of house and garden I'd love to own.
