About Carolside Gardens

Carolside Gardens are set in a former deer park with a beautiful Georgian mansion.

The gardens are best known for their collection of Roses and houses the National Collection of Gallica Roses.

So not surprisingly there is a Rose Garden as well as a Herb Garden, Secret Garden (look for the green Gothic door!), Winter Garden and an Apple Orchard.

Enjoy a river walk and take time for the views from the bridge.

But most of all enjoy the scent o all of the roses – heaven!

You can arrange for private tours of the gardens to include lunch, dinners afternoon teas throughout the year.

Dogs are allowed in the park, only on leads.

Google Visitor Review Score 4.9/5 Stars

Don’t take our word for how genuinely super these gardens are. Here is what visitors to Carolside Gardens had to say:

“Lovely garden, very well kept, and the owner was really friendly and informative.

Lots of seats all over the garden”

“If you can avoid the rain and get a nice, warm, sunny day this garden is pure delight.


The scent of the hundreds of old roses is wonderful.”

“This private garden houses a trip back in time, one almost feels the pace of life drop away as you stroll amongst the wild profusion of headily scented flowers,

or wander along the river bank with the scent of lime blossom and new mown grass…”
