The Savill Garden

About

 

EXPLORE A GARDEN WITH A ROYAL COLLECTION

The Savill Garden is a hidden gem in the heart of Windsor Great Park. Commissioned by George V, the Garden was created in 1932 by Sir Eric Savill and, under the careful guidance of the Keeper of the Gardens and team of horticulturists – it as majestic today as it was then. Visit and you will be connecting with decades of Royal History from the original weeping willow tree that still stands today to many others including:

• The award winning Queen Elizabeth Temperate House opened by Her Majesty The Queen in 1995

• The Golden Jubilee Garden – This representation of the much-loved cottage Garden was opened by Her Majesty in July 2002

• The Rose Garden opened by Her Majesty in 2010. You will enjoy the intensity of the colours and the perfumes as you weave your way to the centre of the garden to a walkway that treats you to a very different view of this spectacular setting

• The New Zealand Garden – Uses native plants gifted to Her Majesty from a state visit in 1986. The garden was re-designed in 2006 and opened by HRH The Duke of York in April 2007
