A wonderful perfume garden with a range of 'rooms' to walk through. Takes about one to two hours to wander around. Some paths in the lower garden are uneven and need care. The day we visited was quite wet, the garden was quiet. There is a lovely cafe and I can recommend the cakes!

Kiftsgate Court is an absolutely magical place. The gardens are breathtakingly beautiful, full of colour, character and so much attention to detail. Around every corner there is something new to discover, yet it never feels overly formal — just wonderfully alive and full of atmosphere. The views over the Cotswolds are stunning and the whole place has a very special charm. You can truly feel the passion and history behind the garden. We spent hours wandering around and could easily have stayed even longer. A perfect place for anyone who loves gardens, nature and peaceful, inspiring places.

Great attraction with its own sculpture trail. The gardens still look good despite the lateness of my visit. Great staff and lovely tea room on site.

A lovely garden with great views and ideal to combine with its immediate neighbour Hidcote. There are some fabulous plants, including many unusual species and the pot displays are wonderful. The water garden is a little barren for my taste but other than that the planting is exuberant. The plant sales area was a little disappointing with a mostly ordinary range of plants but the garden itself is certainly 5*. I read reviews saying it can be visited in an hour and is therefore expensive. In my opinion, a plants person would need more than an hour and indeed you could spend a very pleasant and relaxing half day here.

I’ve many gardens yet to visit, but this one is up there with the best I’ve seen. It flows so well, and there’s many spots that make you want to stop and just be present in the moment. I went on a Monday and it was so quiet , I came away inspired, a very special experience.
