This beautiful garden at Coton Manor occupies 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 the garden’s charm and special atmosphere, with colour and interest throughout the seasons. Beyond the garden is a magical five acre bluebell wood and a wildflower meadow.

The Stableyard Cafe serves homemade lunches and teas when the garden is open. The extensive nursery has over a thousand varieties of plants, many of which are unusual and are propagated from the garden.

Why our members love visiting Coton Manor

Coton Manor Garden herbaceous border

Hazel Booth - Visited September 2021

“Coton manor in Northamptonshire has a wonderful garden. The water features blend beautifully into their surroundings. We went on a second visit to show our grand children the exotic ducks and the comical flamingoes. We all enjoyed a good lunch at the café and pottered about the nursery area before we left.

We hope to go next year to visit the bluebell wood and then later to see the wild flower meadow. An enchanting place with links to Holdenby hall.”
