Hill Close Gardens, situated near Warwick is a good weekend visit for a couple. We visited this year in early Autumn, which is undoubtedly the best time of the year to visit. The colours of the leaves at this time are spectacular, well worth a look. The Gardens themselves are made of individual Victorian gardens, very unusual, and different from the norm. A greenhouse there displays traditional house plants from the Victorian age. Worth a look. The place has been renovated over the last few years and is maintained by the residents and Hill Close association. Previously the site was derelict, quite an amazing feat! We found the numerous free tree varieties especcially interesting and the plant shop there sold many locally grown plants at good value. The idea you can 'buy what you've just seen' I thought, was great. The tea room there is delightful, in keeping with the 'Victorian' theme. The place is easy to find, located near to Warwick race course if you fancy a flutter! It is open all weekends throughout the year, the best time to visit in my opinion.
A lovely Gardens to visit, especially in Autumn. Highly recommended. read more
