About

An Elizabethan masterpiece Welcome to Hardwick, whose stunning houses and beautiful landscape have been created by a cast of thousands. It was the formidable 'Bess of Hardwick' who first created Hardwick in the 1500s. In the centuries since then her descendants, farmers, gardeners, builders, decorators, embroiderers and craftsmen of all kinds have contributed and made Hardwick their creation. We’d like you to explore and enjoy Hardwick and in the process discover the lives, loves and adventures of the creators of Hardwick. This year (for the first time) IGPOTY is coming to Hardwick inside the hall with the very latest competition 12 winners displayed on our custom indoor structure. The exhibition takes place in the Great Kitchen and the Serving Room of this grand building.... Read more

Famous for its vast collection of Rhododendron and Azalea, the last owner, Tom Upcher held Rhododendron champagne parties in the '50s to show them off. Ladies would arrive in their fine gowns, some wearing Wellington boots to walk down the main carriageway, sipping champagne and admiring the colours. Today, you can climb to the top of the towers to experience breathtaking views of this beautiful landscape, the North Norfolk coast and maybe spot a steam train passing through.

About

IGPOTY returns once again to Germany to one of its beautiful castles - Schloss Dyck for an exhibition of select photographs from competition 12. The imposing moated castle Dyck is regarded as one of the most important cultural monuments on the Lower Rhine and has seen 1,000 years of history. Built on four islands in the 17th century, the castle complex lies at the heart of the spacious park. This park was created at the will of Prince Joseph zu Salm-Reifferscheidt-Dyck by the Scottish landscape gardener Thomas Blaikie in the style of the English landscape garden in the 19th century. As Centre for Garden Art and Landscape Design, Schloss Dyck today has much to offer to families and visitors interested in culture as well as garden lovers and experts. Apart from the historic park and gardens, the entire grounds of 70 ha showcase a wealth of new gardens reaching from modern landscape architecture over themed gardens and examples of home gardens and an adventure play area....
