About Tylney Hall Hotel

The house that stands today was built in the 1899-1900 however, parts of the garden date from a much earlier period.

The boat house lake and the top lake of the water garden were both present in the 18th century and some of the mature trees were planted during the first half of the 19th century – in particular some of the avenues and trees around the perimeter of the park.

Most of the garden which survives today dates from about 1900. Seldon Wornum, the architect responsible for the remodelling of the house in 1900, laid out the Italian terrace and the Dutch garden. The designer Robert Weir Schultz, a follower of the Arts and Crafts movement, further embellished the gardens between 1901-1905. He added a range of garden buildings including a boathouse, summerhouse, greenhouses, water tower and orangery. In 1906 he asked Gertrude Jekyll to produce designs for a wild water garden. She prepared planting plans and suggestions for the whole area south of the kitchen garden, flower borders along the south wall and in front of the Orangery, plant lists for the wild garden and plans for planting along the main watercourse.

In 1940 the water garden was redesigned by Woods of Taplow and a second watercourse was created which divided into two spurs and ran along the edge of the woodland. Later additions include an azalea garden, which lies behind the remains of the circular rose garden. Most of the garden that survives today dates from about 1900.
