Kiftsgate is a glorious garden to visit throughout the seasons with spectacular views.
Three generations of women gardeners have designed, planted and sustained this garden.
The upper gardens around the house are planted to give harmonious colour schemes, whilst the sheltered lower gardens recreate the atmosphere of warmer countries.
The giant Kiftsgate rose rampages here. A modern water garden provides an oasis of tranquillity and contrast to the exuberance of the flower gardens.
