  • Gardens worth a visit - West Wiltshire

    I live close to Iford Manor in bradford in Avon. I've been several times but I like to pop back to see what is growing well as they have similar soil to me....they also have the dreaded ground elder!
    The Peto gardens are Grade 1 listed and is built on a hillside with lovely views. The gardens are terraced with steep stone steps, stone work and columns. The wisterias are fabulous st this time of year. Well worth a visit if you are ever in the area.

    I'm from around that area and have been to the manor several times, probably the last time was 15-odd years ago? I didn't realise there were gardens to look at, are these a new thing? We used to do the walk from Avoncliff to Iford.

      I think they've been open many years but it's a short season - April- September? It's worth a visit. They had a butterfly weekend on last week so make sure you go when "events" are not on because it gets pretty busy.

      Actually I went to Avoncliff for a walk last weekend with the dog and then we hired canoes and took him on a boat - he wasn't impressed!
