The gardens open include the Manor, in the centre of the village by the Red Lion; the Grange, perched like an eerie on high ground above Back Street ; Crab Mill, in Grump street, once home to Nobel prize winner Dorothy Hodgkin;  the Grey House, an architectural gem with amazing views higher up Grump Street; Frog Orchard, in Frog Lane, a modern house with a lovely cottage garden, and the Bevingtons, a perfect thatched chocolate box cottage, once three cottages, with hens roaming its lawns in Valanders Lane.

One and a half miles south-west of Ilmington, Compton Scorpion Farm is opening its beautifully planned and sited hillside gardens, and two miles east of Ilmington, dreamy and secret moated Armscote House's wonderfully revived gardens can be visited for the first time.
