The Italianate gardens at Renishaw were visualised and built by Sir George Sitwell between 1886 and 1936. Inspired by what already existed and rooting for the future potential of the grounds, Sir Reresby and Lady Sitwell introduced an array of colour and texture between 1965 and 2009, emphasising the lines of the garden and ultimately transforming the overall look and feel.  Since taking over the estate in 2009, Alexandra has brought her vision to life by introducing exotic plantings and a stunning rose garden. She continues to work closely with our team of skilled and devoted gardeners, who maintain the exceptional beauty of Renishaw’s outdoor spaces.
