GARDENS TO VISIT THIS SUMMER

KELMARSH HALL

The glorious grade II* listed gardens at Kelmarsh Hall are influenced by the work of three 20th century tastemakers: Nancy Lancaster, Norah Lindsey and Geoffrey Jellicoe. The garden holds exuberant flower borders, romantic rose gardens, and a walled garden full of vibrant colours. Springtime offers swathes of daffodils and fritillaries along the driveway to the Hall, and a colourful sea of tulips in the walled garden.

OPEN: 17 April – 29 September 2022
