One of Britain's great Arts and Crafts gardens, Hidcote was actually crated by an American horticulturist, Major Lawrence Johnston. Situated int the north Cotswolds, very close to Stratford-upon-Avon it is a fabulous place for gardening inspiration. There are numerous colorful, intricately designed outdoor rooms, precisely clipped yew hedges and topiary, a maze of narrow paved pathways, secret gardens, fabulous vistas and plants collected from Johnston's many plant hunting trips to exotic locations.
