Cotswold castle is setting for BBC show
13/05/2015
Historic home Sudeley Castle & Gardens expects to see a surge in visitors after featuring on a primetime BBC2 show.
The Great Chelsea Garden Challenge tasks budding garden designers with a new gardening challenge each day, and last night’s episode was hosted in the beautiful grounds of the local landmark.
The Great Chelsea Garden Challenge tasks budding garden designers with a new gardening challenge each day, and last night’s episode was hosted in the beautiful grounds of the local landmark.
Sudeley Castle is world-renowned for its nine magnificent gardens, but five formal gardens were added by the contestants on the show which aired on Tuesday, May 12, at 8pm.
Sian Jocelyn, visitor services manager at the castle, said: “We were thrilled to host The Great Chelsea Garden Challenge here at Sudeley. Given our reputation for gardening excellence and the dramatic 15th Century castle, we provided the perfect backdrop to the show.
“The new designs complement our existing gardens wonderfully, and we expect to see a number of new visitors who are keen to view the formal gardens.”
Eminent landscape designers including Lanning Roper, Rosemary Verey, Jane Fearnley-Whittingstall, Charles Chesshire and, more recently, Sir Roddy Llewellyn have all been involved in the design and layout of the gardens at Sudeley Castle.
Located on the edge of Winchcombe, only eight miles from Cheltenham, Sudeley Castle & Gardens is the only private castle in England to have a queen buried within the grounds.
The last of Henry VIII’s six wives, Katherine Parr lived and died in the castle, where she still remains today entombed in a beautiful 15th Century church found within the award-winning gardens.
A pheasantry, adventure playground with picnic area and living willow maze, gift shop and café in the banqueting hall complete the perfect day out.
