In addition to Parks and Country Parks, we also feature a category for Heritage and Historic Parks & Gardens. Our region is home to a wealth of beautiful spots in this category, with past entries including Highdown Gardens, Riverhill Himalayan Gardens, Hole Park, Hever Castle, Penshurst Place, Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, Walmer Castle, Osborne House, and Farringford House & Gardens on the Isle of Wight, to name just a few. These stunning gardens are well worth a visit if you get the chance, and they represent only a fraction of the wonderful locations in our area—we’d love to see even more participate. If you’re connected to a Heritage or Historic Garden, consider getting involved. To enter, visit www.inbloom.org.uk and complete the form under the “entry form” tab.
