Creation of Sissinghurst
One of the most famous of all English gardens, Sissinghurst was created by Vita Sackville-West, an Edwardian lady, poet and writer and her husband Harold Nicolson, author and diplomat. She was more famous for her garden than any of her many books.
Delving into her colourful and unconventional past as well as her flamboyant family, Vita was as well known for her lovers as for her remarkable garden. Today Sissinghurst is the most visited garden in all of England and it is still breathtaking as well as original, just like its creator.
