DETAILED OVERVIEW
Sissinghurst Castle Garden - Roses in Bloom
Vita Sackville-West, the poet and writer, began transforming Sissinghurst Castle in the 1930s with her diplomat and author husband, Harold Nicolson. Harold's architectural planning of the garden rooms, and the colourful, abundant planting in the gardens by Vita, reflect the romance and intimacy of her poems and writings. Sissinghurst Castle Garden was the backdrop for a diverse history; from the astonishing time as a prison in the 1700s, to being a home to the women’s land army. It was also a family home to some fascinating people who lived there or came to stay. The National Trust have undertaken research to find out more about Vita and Harold's original design and are taking steps to recapture the vision that they had. Don't miss the vast panoramic views from the top of the Tower, the working farm and the 450-acre wider estate. The gardens are famous for their Roses which are due to bloom in June.Friday 6 June 2025 Pick ups: Royston & Trumpington Monday 16 June 2025 Pick ups: Saffron Walden, Newport, Stansted Mountfitchet & Bishop's Stortford Adult £46 Senior £44 £17 National Trust Member Discount
