Doddington Hall & Gardens - Iris Week

For many, the gardens at Doddington are just as spectacular as the Hall itself. Remaining faithful to the original Elizabethan layout, mellow walls provide the framework for the formal East Front and West Gardens. Beyond the West Gardens begin the lovingly restored Wild Gardens.

Don't miss Iris Week each May: enjoy the enchanting beauty of the famous Doddington Iris display in the romantic setting of Doddington Hall's Walled West Garden.

The irises rise above box-edged parterres enabling the petals to catch the afternoon sun. This ornamental plant with its popular sword-shaped petals has been grown at Doddington for over thirty years.
