Open Gardens

Open Gardens offers a rare opportunity to explore the secrets of hidden and private gardens not usually open to the public. The programme has a spectacular list of gardens of all shapes and sizes throughout the UK.

The season runs from February through to October with most of the gardens opening during the summer months. In addition, why not think about adding your own garden to the programme or offering to volunteer at one of the events? We'd love to hear from you.
