Garden Tours in Denmark

During the Baroque period, French garden design had a strong influence on Danish castle gardens. We are not aware of any companies which offer specialist tours of Danish gardens - but no garden enthusiasts should visit Copenhagen without visiting the waterfront where the Little Mermaid rests (there is a baroque fountain nearby). They should also visit the Tivoli Gardens, which are full of flowers, fountains and restaurants. The art gallery at Louisiana, north of Copenhagen, is also an attraction..

‘Made in Denmark’, 7th to 11th July 2017

Hosted by GARDENS ILLUSTRATED contributor, David Wheeler
Spread across a myriad of islands with a population number similar to Scotland’s, Denmark is a remarkably successful country. It is no surprise to find many well-loved, exceptional gardens reflecting the nation’s finest qualities. We start the tour in Copenhagen, based at the harbour-side Copenhagen Admiral Hotel, the best of modern design set in a converted grain-drying warehouse with its own elegant and stylish restaurant, SALT. We then move to the southernmost tip of Zealand to the charming Hotel Frederiksminde on Præstø Fjord, a stately 1890 manor house just a few steps from the beach.
