Sudeley Castle’s gardens alongside Eden Project in top 5 gardens to visit in the South West
Sudeley Castle’s gardens near Winchcombe, have been voted as one of the top 5 favourite gardens to visit in the South West by Gardeners’ World fans.
Over 6,000 Gardeners’ World magazine readers and gardenersworld.com web users voted for their favourite gardens from each UK region. The winners in each of the eight regions received the accolade of ‘The Readers’ Choice Rosette’ and Sudeley was voted into the top 5 destinations in the South West, with the nationally acclaimed Eden Project coming number one in the region.
According to Gardeners’ World editor Adam Pasco: “The UK is blessed with an abundance of beautiful and historic gardens and it’s no wonder that millions of people flock to enjoy their splendour every year. We have gathered a wealth of beautiful and inspiring gardens for our 2009 ‘Gardens To Visit’ guide and it was fascinating to get the public’s insight into their favourites. With our 2-for-1 entry it makes it even more appealing to get out and enjoy the best of the British gardens and see if you agree with the results.”
Gardeners’ World magazine’s free ‘Gardens to Visit’ guide is available with the magazine in stores now and features the winning gardens and 2 for 1 entry offers.
