We're sorry to announce that the Manor & grounds are currently closed due to weather.

Winner of the nation’s favourite garden

The gardens at Coton Manor occupy a hillside position extending down from the 17th century manor house constructed of mellow Northamptonshire stone. The 10 acre garden has luxuriant borders that will delight the plant enthusiast while everyone will enjoy its charm and atmosphere, with colour and interest throughout the seasons. Beyond the garden is a magical five acre bluebell wood and a wildflower meadow.
Originally laid out in the 1920s by the grandparents of the current owner, the garden has been developed gradually by subsequent generations to its present state, where in 2019 it was voted as ‘The Nation’s Favourite Garden’ in a poll conducted by the English Garden magazine in conjunction with the National Garden Scheme. Since 1991 it has been tended by Susie Pasley-Tyler, recently joined by her younger daughter, Imogen.

You will never be disappointed whatever the season. For lovers of gardens whether yours is large or small this must surely be one of the finest gardens in England. Every corner you turn provides a ‘wow’ factor. Snowdrops, followed by bluebells, roses, clematis, dahlias delight the eye in Summer…Too much to describe to anyone has never visited. On top of all these delights there is a wonderful cafe and plant nursery. Just go and see for yourself.
