1930s-style garden, with herbaceous borders, cottage garden and lily pond

Did you know?

Dorneywood is traditionally the country residence of a senior member of the Government, usually a Secretary of State or Minister of the Crown. It was given to us by Lord Courtauld-Thomson and it is administered by the Dorneywood Trust at no cost to the public or to the National Trust.

We're sorry, but no photography is allowed.

Useful information

The gardens will be opened in aid of the National Gardens Scheme on five afternoons in 2012. Admission is by appointment only, for a small charge (including members). Please email the team to book tickets giving at least two weeks' notice.
