Boldshaves is a private estate and family home with a lovingly restored garden complementing the Arts & Crafts house, surrounded by ancient woodland deep in the Kent countryside.The garden at Boldshaves has been substantially redeveloped over the last 30 years and new features continue to evolve. The garden is part terraced, south-facing, with a walled garden containing a variety of semi-hardy and southern hemisphere plants; a Camellia dell; herbaceous borders, including the well-known Red Borders; a Flame Bed; an Italian Garden; a garden planted up in 2012 to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee; a vegetable garden; a wide variety of old-fashioned English roses; and a herb garden given over to both culinary and medicinal herbs.
The ancient woodland which borders the garden is accessible throughout the year.
