Westbury Court Garden
Small but perfect, Westbury Court Gardens is a wonderful example of a Franco-Dutch garden.
Centred around the Long Canal, there are clipped hedges and rectangular beds planted with vegetables and fruit. At the far side is a formal garden.
The Walled Garden is filled with period flowers and an abundance of roses.
Climb up the Tall Pavilion and enjoy the view over the gardens.
The holm oak at Westbury is probably the oldest in UK.
Unlike many National Trust gardens, there’s no shop or cafe. Coffees and teas and a small selection of gifts can be bought from the mobile ticket office.
The gardens are open on several days a week from March until the end of October – check the website for details.
National Trust members visit for free.
