Doddington Hall & Gardens
Doddington Hall & Gardens is a beautiful family-owned Elizabethan mansion, with original walled courtyards and 5 acres of romantic formal and wild gardens. The West Garden includes a box-edged parterre, planted with a superb display of Flag Iris, roses and fabulous herbaceous borders around the mellow brick walls. The Wild Garden contains a turf maze, a temple of the winds, magnificent trees, rare rhododendrons and winter flowering shrubs. All this provides a backdrop for the pageant of thousands of spring bulbs, which commences in February. Award-winning facilities for disabled visitors and visually impaired.
