RHS Renishaw Hall And Gardens
Home to the Sitwell family for nearly 400 years, Renishaw Hall and Gardens is predominantly an Italianate garden set in a traditional English countryside. The house and formal grounds date from the 1620s, but it was the passion and commitment of Sir George Sitwell, 4th Bt., and his admiration for the classical Italian gardens, that forms the landscape of Renishaw Hall and Gardens still enjoyed by visitors today.

The beautiful Italianate gardens were laid out in the late 19th century by Sir George, the brilliantly eccentric great-grandfather of the current owner, Alexandra. Sir George applied the principles of Italian Renaissance gardens to the garden he made at Renishaw: symmetry, proportion, scale and shadow. Today, the gardens under Alexandra offer so much for the visitor to enjoy; throughout the season there are many garden highlights such as bluebells, delphiniums, camellias and roses.
