The visionary garden designer and his late wife have spent the last forty years developing their four-acre field into the largest private formal gardens in England to exist since 1945. Together they have spectacularly planned and planted beautiful garden features, such as a rose garden, an orchard, fountains, topiaries, knot gardens and prairie style borders.

Taking place at the Yeo Valley HQ and Organic Garden, tickets cost £60 per person and can be booked through www.thelaskettgardens.co.uk. The day includes an illustrated talk, delicious lunch and a tour of the Organic Garden, where plants will be for sale.

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
