Hanham Court Gardens is a 13th Century estate situated on the edge of the Cotswolds, between Bristol and Bath.
Home to Julia and Richard Boissevian and their family since 2015, the gardens at Hanham Court have only recently become a prominent feature of the estate, in relation to its long history.
In 1993, the award-winning landscape designers Isabel and Julian Bannerman re-established and transformed the grounds into the inspiring gardens that you see today. The couple have designed gardens across the globe, including the 9/11 Memorial Gardens in New York, Lord Rothschild at Waddesdon Manor and King Charles III at Highgrove.
Over twenty years Isabel and Julian skilfully designed a sympathetic and deeply romantic garden with a reputation that takes it far beyond Hanham. Today the Boissevain family continue to honour their work, putting their own love and passion for gardening into maintaining this green haven, whilst creating and experimenting with new planting schemes and garden spaces to enjoy.
‘Roses wind around wooden obelisks in a shape that resembles spun sugar, producing voluminous, frothy white roses all through the summer months’
— J. Boissevain
