Park House Hotel, Bepton, West Sussex

IOTA’s natural stone planters were chosen for Park House Hotel, a luxury country house hotel in the downland village of Bepton, West Sussex.

A total of 58 planters were used in the scheme, from the Granite and Marmoris ranges, including many of IOTA’s largest stock planter designs such as the Trough 1000, Taper 1100 and Cube 600. The planting is highly varied, including not only traditional box and bay topiary, but also pines underplanted seasonally, and mass planting of heathers. In one area along a red brick wall, a line of Trough 1000 planters are planted with culinary herbs and aromatic vegetables used by the hotel’s kitchen.
