Whilst Chelsea Flower Show or the big gardening names like Sissinghurst and Great Dixter are commonly what draws our clients to join us, the smaller private gardens and the extraordinary people that have made them are a vital element of experiencing the joy of English gardens. Last week we had the pleasure of meeting Chris & Robin Hutt who were so generous with their time and hospitality at the inspiring and beautiful contemporary creation that is their garden at Fairlight End. Then, no visit to the Kentish countryside would feel complete without the incomparable Charlotte & Donald Molesworth and their garden of dreams at Balmoral Cottage. Apologies for the photos - it was just too sunny! fairlightendgarden #englishgardens #gardentour ... See MoreSee Less

Chelsea 2026 and we loved it. So many wonderful show gardens in all the categories but delighted that Sarah Eberle's 'On the Edge' garden for the Council for the Protection of Rural England won Best in Show. A beautiful design and a fitting finale to Project Giving Back's support to so many amazing gardens and charities over recent years. #gardentour #chelseaflowershow #ProjectGivingBack ...
