Stiga is a leading manufacturer of garden machinery and equipment and also makes Mountfi eld and Atco lawnmowers.

A luxurious stay at Gravetye Manor
Pride of Britain Hotels count some of the country’s fi nest properties among their collection, including manor houses, castles, woodland retreats, elegant lodges and city boltholes, each one unique and characterful. Experience the best places to eat, stay and unwind within the British Isles, where a special experience awaits every guest.
All gardeners are familiar with Gravetye Manor, thanks to the beautiful gardens created there by vanguard Victorian horticulturist William Robinson. But the Sussex manor house itself is equally spectacular and dates back to 1598, when Richard Infi eld built it for his new bride, Katherine. Look above the main door frame and you will see the letters R and K etched into the stone.
This is a house built for love: it’s carved into the very fabric of the building. It’s evident in the Michelin-starred restaurant and the estate-grown produce served within it, the 1,000 acres of countryside that surround it, and the freshly picked fl owers in each of the 17 bedrooms.
Wander through the manor’s woodpanelled rooms with exquisitely carved fi replaces and ornate ceilings to reach the glass-fronted dining room, recently recognised in the Mid Sussex Design Awards as ‘best non-residential design’. Step out into the fl agstoned courtyard and then lose yourself in the wild beauty of the famous fl ower garden.
Enter our prize draw for a chance to experience the quintessential beauty of Gravetye’s gardens as well as the inspiring seasonal menus of Michelinstarred head chef George Blogg. Win an overnight stay in a Deluxe Room with a four-course dinner for two in the Michelin-starred restaurant and full English breakfast (worth £886 in total). The prize is subject to availability and must be taken by 30 October 2022.
