The first of three Snowdrop Open Days. Advance tickets are available here.
There are swathes of snowdrops under the trees and aconites too; and more snowdrops in the walled kitchen garden and the Glade. Many of the common single and double blooms were planted in Victorian times or before. The Trust keeps planting more!
Children will also love the new animal trail in the Garden, the treehouse and the elephant statue.
Snowdrops in the green and snowdrop merchandise on sale.
The gardens open from 11.00am until 4pm with the last entry at 3pm.
Hot food will be provided by The Giggly Pig – bacon, sausage and burger rolls. The Trust’s volunteers will provide vegetarian soup, cheese and hummus rolls as well as homemade cakes, hot and cold drinks until 3.30pm or until they run out!
Adult entry £6.00 if bought in advance – or £7.50 on the gate.
Children under 16 FREE.
Dogs on leads welcome.
We set the Open Day dates for visitors to see the snowdrops at their best, but we cannot guarantee that, as snowdrops are weather dependent and may start to flower earlier or later in February.
Advance tickets will be refunded if the Trust has to decide the Gardens cannot open, due to a significant risk to visitors and volunteers, for example from adverse weather or very poor ground conditions.
