VISITORS to Coughton Court who have been inspired by the historic home's glorious gardens can learn how they were created at a half-day course on May 13.

Celebrated garden designer Christina Williams, whose mother Clare Throckmorton lives at the Coughton estate, will talk about her work transforming grass and orchards into several different gardens, including an Elizabethan knot garden, a rose labyrinth and a Parisian lime tree walkway.

She will be passing on tips to help guests improve the design of their own gardens.

The event, which includes a three-course lunch with wine, costs £58 and can be booked by calling Coughton Court on 01789 400702.
