After obtaining a degree in Economics, Carolyn had a long and successful career in the travel business organising specialist tours all over the UK and Europe. Having always been a keen gardener, garden tours were of particular interest to Carolyn and served to develop her knowledge of plants, gardens and design styles both domestically and internationally.

A funding initiative which sought to encourage women into the field of horticulture provided Carolyn with the opportunity to make the move into a horticultural career. Carolyn obtained a distinction in the RHS General Certificate in Horticulture at Kingston Maurward College nr. Dorchester. Further success in her studies of Garden Design and Garden History followed.
