Highgrove – Doughton, Tetbury GL8 8TQ
Highgrove is the private home of Their Royal Highnesses The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall. The house is not open to the public, but the Gardens are open between April and October.
The series of interlinked gardens has been created with imagination and passion over some 40 years and reflects The Prince’s natural artistic ability. Managed organically and sustainably, the gardens have become an important haven for a rich variety of flora and fauna.
An all day visit by coach. £42 per person. Maximum number of 52 people. Times tbc.

Wormsley Walled Garden – Stokenchurch, Bucks, HP14 3YE
Dating back to the mid-1700s, Wormsley’s original Walled Garden was created by Richard Woods, a contemporary of Capability Brown.
The Walled Garden was redesigned with sections for flower and vegetable gardens.
On acquiring Wormsley in 1985, the late Sir Paul and Lady Getty embarked on restoring it to its former beauty.
Maximum number 30 people. Details to be finalised.
