Wyndcliffe Court Gardens are Grade II listed and designed in the Arts and Crafts style. Now opening to the public on a regular basis with free entry, they will showcase contemporary sculptures by local and well-known British artists. The collection will feature hundreds of sculptures in a wide variety of mediums, sizes and styles situated throughout the garden and offering the opportunity to view and purchase beautiful sculpture with an outstanding backdrop.

Wyndcliffe Court Gardens - the sunken garden and summerhouse

The Edwardian gardens feature sculpted topiary, a sunken garden, a summerhouse, walled gardens, fountains, a lily pond and a bowling lawn leading on to wooded walks. Designed by H. Avray Tipping, friend of Gertrude Jekyll and Editor of Country Life magazine, they were completed in 1922 and are probably the best example of their type in Wales.

Wyndcliffe Court Gardens - lilies and roses

Famous for its Alice in Wonderland-like, almost fantasy topiary, it attracted crowds of visitors when last open to the public in 2005 under the National Gardens Scheme. With the addition of a careful mix of well chosen sculptures placed around the garden, it will attract both gardening enthusiasts and art lovers alike.
