A Garden Fit for Bridgerton

Join a tour of a garden designed for pleasure, as we relive its party heyday.  

 

Claremont in Surrey once played host to events described as the lovechild of a festival and a palace garden party.  Presenter James Grasby uncovers the best spots, the shenanigans they elicited, and the most incredible views reminiscent of scenes from hit Netflix drama, Bridgerton.
