Just going off photos and video, my favourite garden was the Arthritis Research UK Garden designed by Thomas Hoblyn. There's great plants, the stonework is excellent and he's used water really well. Theres a formal pond then water spouts leaping in arches over the hedging. The Cypress trees are a great backdrop and theres a great old Cork Oak.
The only thing I think is missing is a few white water lillies in the pond.
You can see the garden yourself on BBC Iplayer move the dial to start at 4 minutes, if you want to avoid seeing alan Titchmarsh drooling over Claudia Schieffer HAHA!
