Garden Holidays UK & Worldwide

Newby Hall Gardens were influenced by Lawrence Johnston's Hidcote Manor in Gloucestershire, Major Compton decided to create a main axis for the garden running from the south front of the house right down to the River Ure. The axis consisted of double herbaceous borders flanked by double yew hedges with a broad grass walk running down the middle. Off it he planned compartmented gardens of formal design like rooms off the main passage of a house.
The gardens he created over 50 years cover 40 acres and make a great contribution to 20th century gardening design. Today the gardens at Newby Hall  have been totally restored and replanted  over a ten year period.by Mr and Mrs Robin Compton.
