Set high above the Thames with far-reaching views, Cliveden’s vibrant gardens capture the grandeur of a bygone age. The formal gardens give way to secluded glades, tree-lined avenues and picturesque riverside with miles of woodland walks to discover.

Follow in the footsteps of dukes, earls and royalty as you explore a series of gardens, each with their own special charm. From the fragrant Rose Garden, with winding paths through layers of colourful blooms, to the vast Parterre with its geometric beds and far-reaching views, there is something for everyone at Cliveden. Cliveden House now operates as a luxury hotel, but short tours will be available on Tuesday 10th, Wednesday 11th, and Thursday 12th of September. House Tour, Sculpture Tour and Garden Tour tickets are available from the Information Centre on a first come first served basis. Get to know the estate and venture off the beaten track to discover new places with our '50 things to do at Cliveden before you're 125' leaflet which you can collect from the Information Centre, or look out for the outdoor pop-up history talks provided by our dedicated volunteers.
Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust can be found in the Water Garden on Wednesday 11th and Thursday 12th, promoting the Garden History and work of the National Trust.
