House Guest: The C&TH Interiors Podcast in Partnership with Life Kitchens
This week’s House Guest is Arabella Lennox-Boyd.
‘I spend most of my time outside in the rain, and apparently it’s very good for your skin,’ says Arabella Lennox Boyd. It’s hard to disagree knowing this elegant Italian-born lady is in her eighth decade.
Arabella has created over 800 gardens for the likes of Trudi and Sting Styler, the Rothschilds and a smorgasbord of royalty. At her own home, Gresgarth Hall in Lancashire, where she moved when her politician husband, Sir Mark Lennox-Boyd won the local seat of Morecambe and Lonsdale, she embarked on one of her biggest challenges. Gresgarth has been a passion project, turning an over-grown tangled birds’ nest into a garden of controlled mastery and unkempt freedom. It’s magical. Tune in to House Guest for more.
