Did you know we open all year round - more or less.
Why would we close when we’d be depriving you of the beautiful colours of autumn, the wonderful sunsets, the dew-spangled spider webs and the (finally) ripening apples and pumpkins?!
The summer, with notable exceptions, has been mostly a washout, with the subsequent effects on our fruit and veg harvest, but nevertheless we looove September and October in the Gardens.
Our opening days and hours remain the same until the end of October: Weds - Sundays 10.30 -4.30pm (with extra days during October half term).
So shake out your scarf and gloves and come and enjoy the delights of the Gardens in Autumn.
See below for some of September and October’s stand out events and dont forget to check our webpages and social media for other highlights.
What about Christmas then!
Oh go on, if we must.
Put these dates in the diary and we’ll give more details soon.
There will be four Christmas themed Saturday afternoons:
25th November, 2nd, 9th and 16th December.
Expect a small craft/gift fair, visits from Singing Santa (2nd and 9th), crafting activities, mulled wine, hot soup and ‘Owls by Candlelight’ evening experiences.
And yes, there will be shelter.
Alongside the heating under the canopy of the Courtyard Cafe, the Melon Ground will have temporary canvas cover to provide shelter from the wind, rain and cold. A place to warm up, sip the hot chocolate or winter soup after your winter stroll.
See you soon
The Team at the Gardens
