David Austin Roses at Albrighton

David Austin Roses have created a large rose garden which many consider to be one of the most beautiful in the world. Next door is the David Austin Roses Plant Centre, a Tea Room and Garden Shop. All this can be found in the town of Albrighton, about 15 miles (25 minutes) drive from the Hundred House Hotel.

The Rose Garden

Over 700 different varieties of roses are planted in the garden which now covers around 2 acres (0.8 HA). The garden is divided into a number of smaller areas, each with its own style. The overall concept is to enclose the exuberant and rather informal growth of the roses within neatly clipped evergreen hedges.

Plant Centre

A wide selection of fragrant English Roses from David Austin' Plant Centre are available to purchase in containers all year round. They are ideal to fill a gap in the border.
