About the garden
Goldstone Hall Gardens is a mature and well-maintained space that showcases a blend of formal and informal planting, capturing the essence of a quintessential English garden. Located within five acres of grounds that overlook the tree-strewn fields of the North Shropshire countryside.
Visitors can explore a productive hotel kitchen garden featuring unique and enchanting herbal walkways sheltered by copper beech hedges. This garden boasts over 100 varieties of herbs, as well as fruit cultivars like espalier-trained apples and pears. Additionally, a vineyard with 140 young vines, featuring Solaris and Pinot Noir, has been established. Goldstone also cultivates a diverse range of vegetables and spices, which are trialled for their suitability to the local climate. Nearby, a vibrant cutting flower border adds to the garden's charm.
The gardens feature wildflower meadows to attract pollinators, foraging hedges and a variety of plants selected for their individual qualities. Guests can enjoy an extensive Walled Garden, featuring double-tiered herbaceous borders filled with vibrant plants. A romantic Rose Terrace overlooks the Walled Garden, showcasing a mix of rose varieties that bloom from May to November.
The garden is the perfect setting to admire the carefully planned planting after a seasonally inspired lunch or during a delightful afternoon tea.
