A nineteenth century with a twentieth century Arts and Crafts garden. It was made by Heather Muir with much help from Major Johnston of Hidcote. A woodland garden steps down the hillside to a half-moon swimming pool. Many features are typical of the Arts and Crafts period: herbaceous borders, a four square garden, a white garden, a yellow border, a rockery, lawns and a bluebell wood.

The Kiftsgate Water Garden, called the New Garden, has with a bronze leaf scupture by Simon Allison. The water garden was designed by the owners (Anne and Johnny Chambers). The inspiration for stepping stones was from Geoffrey Jellicoe's stepping stones at Sutton Place. The composition of the New Garden is abstract modern.

    I searched for your kiftsgate rose for a time,
    living in northern Spain did not help much, but in one of my latest visit to England this summer I visited an old schoolfriend that had it and I was sure that I wanted to have one for my garden. I happen to have a perfect place for it! So thank you for letting me see it.

    A superb and utterly mesmerizing place ,especially if you are seriously into plants. The way plants have been grouped to enhance flower and foliage colours is endlessly sublime not to mention a rich and extensive collection. I couldnt get enough of it all ! Must go back soon.
