The National Trust Greenhouses are all free-standing and come in a choice of 7 different designs and a choice of 6 lovely heritage colours.
Each of the Greenhouses is named after a celebrated National Trust Garden.
The Hidcote
2.6m x 3m (8’5” x 10’1”).
One of the great 20th Century Arts and Crafts style gardens found in Gloucestershire. The Hidcote is perfect for the smaller garden or novice gardener.
The door can be situated in either gable end, and a suggested layout would be a bench at the opposite gable, and one or 2 beds to either side. It is the perfect scale for small urban or cottage garden.
The Scotney
2.6m x 4m (8’5” x 13’5”).
A romantic garden set within a beautiful wooded estate of Scotney Castle in Tunbridge Wells.
Still with the gable end door, the Scotney offers more space and therefore more scope for benching and beds.
The Stourhead
2.6m x 5m (8’5” x 16’”).
The epitome of England’s 18th century great landscaping in Warminster, Wiltshire.
The Stourhead with fully fitted benching uses every inch of space for maximum growing potential.
The Mottisfont
2.6m x 4m (8’5” x 13’5”) with flat fronted lobby.
Mottisfont is famous for its walled garden and the National Collection of Old Fashioned Roses in the River Test Valley, Hampshire.
The smallest of the lobbied Greenhouses, the Mottisfont provides a beautiful focal point to a potager or vegetable garden.
The Tatton
2.9m x 5.1m (approx9’6” x 16’9”) with extended feature lobby.
Named after one of The Trust’s most famous properties, and host to one of the RHS Flower Shows – Tatton Park in Cheshire. Tatton is famous for its neo-classical mansion and recently restored walled garden with fine glasshouses, where traditional methods of gardening are still used.
The Tatton is similar in style to the Mottisfont with its central lobby, but extends it to provide more of a porch feature. The glasshouse is also slightly wide than the Mottisfont, and over a
metre longer.
The Wimpole
2.9m x 6.4m(approx 9’6” x 20’11”) with extended feature lobby.
Wimpole Hall is one of the grandest working estates in Cambridgeshire. It was created by the greatest landscape designers of their day: Bridgeman, Brown and Repton. The park and gardens include Pleasure Grounds which lead to the walled kitchen garden abundant with fruit and vegetables.
The Wimpole Greenhouse is over a metre longer than the Tatton to give that extra bit of growing space.
The Cliveden
3.5m x 6.4m (approx 11’7” x 20’11”) with extended feature lobby.
Cliveden is known for its magnificent formal gardens overlooking the Thames, once the exclusive haunt of the rich and famous. The spectacular estate, with a celebrated parterre, has a series of formal gardens each with its own character. It also has an outstanding collection of sculpture and statues from the ancient and modern worlds.
The extra width of the Cliveden gives a very generously proportioned growing area, with great flexibility for layout.
