"I wanted to say a huge thank you for the wonderfully inspiring 10 week Garden Design course last autumn."

Briony D

"I was looking for a career change after moving areas two years ago and from my first visit to the school I was impressed by the enthusiasm and professional approach of all involved. The course involves a balance of theory and teaching, with guest lecturers adding to Caroline’s core instruction, and practical work. Feedback from ‘real’ clients has been invaluable."

Dena W

"Thank you for a totally inspiring day. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it and want to begin working on my survey, planting plans and mood board straight away. There is a whole lot to learn but instead of being overwhelmed I am very excited knowing that I can take my creativity and put it into a more structured plan to help move forward."

Anita C

"I attended your garden design day course last week and I just wanted to thank you for such an enjoyable and informative day. We both loved it and felt your amazing enthusiasm was deliciously contagious. Loads of ideas now buzzing around."

Rosalie A

"I just wanted to let you know how much I've enjoyed the last 10 weeks and how much I've learned from you and from the others on the course. I will miss Wednesdays at the gardening school but I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again at Malvern - and to turning my design into a reality in my own garden! And hopefully to steering my career in a totally different direction as a garden designer."

Carole N

“A belated but heartfelt thank you of the super day I spent at the school a few Saturdays ago! It was a real inspiration, and I am just itching to put ideas into practice and to learn more!”

Elaine M

"Thank you so much for the very informative and interesting course I attended last Saturday, also for the delicious lunch. I’ve certainly come home with plenty of ideas – now I just need the time, energy and vision to put them into practice!"

Geraldine G

"Sending our sincere thanks for a thoroughly enjoyable day at the Garden Design group last Saturday. You honestly made the day so interesting and I was actually amazed how much material I seemed to retain! Believe me Caroline, this is very unusual for me..... :-)"

Maggie N

"I wanted to gain some underpinning knowledge about gardening. Coming to an Open Morning convinced me that the Cotswold Gardening School was a great place to learn. I chose to do the Professional Horticulture course and this became the highlight of my week, every week, for 10 weeks! The School is an inspiring place with great facilities."

Diana M

"Very many thanks for a splendid day on Saturday. The day course was just what I was looking for and I learnt a lot – happy coincidence that we both share clay soil and so it was enlightening to discover new plants which would survive it and to be reassured that some of my choices were also yours. I appreciate the amount you packed into a day’s teaching especially on such a warm day."

One Day Courses

For day courses doors open at 10:00 for tea and coffee and teaching will get underway by 10:30. We normally finish at 16:00 and lunch is included along with lots of handouts for you to take home. Please do notify us at least a week in advance if you have any specific dietary requirements or need to alter a booking.

You are welcome to join us in a tour of the garden as part of your day so do pop your wellies and weatherproof clothing into the car. On our day courses we provide you with the tools to become self-sufficient in designing and managing your own garden. Your course will be packed with information but there will not be enough time to provide advice on individual gardens.

If you are looking for this kind of advice we would direct you to one of our ten week courses, where there is sufficient time to offer information on an individual basis.

Many of our day courses make great gifts and we have attractive vouchers to present to the recipient.

Some courses are aimed at continued professional development, please check the course descriptions.

Day courses require at least 3 bookings to run, in the event that there are insufficient numbers to run a course you will be notified a week in advance and offered either a full refund or a booking on another date.
