Further Description
  • The 2012 Open Gardens event in Ashton under Hill will be held on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 June, between 1.00 and 6.00pm each day, and we're looking forward to another bumper weekend.This is always an enjoyable occasion for the village and our many visitors, who come from all over the world as well as much closer to home.

    This year we will have 25 gardens open for visitors, ranging from traditional country cottage and vegetable gardens, to rose and shrub displays, formal designs and larger landscaped plots - all with a wide variety of plants. Keen gardeners will enjoy talking to garden owners about the challenges behind their particular layout and their choice of planting. There will also be a free exhibition in St Barbara's Church celebrating HM The Queen's Diamond Jubilee and as in previous years there will be the opportunity to buy a wide selection of quality plants and crafts.

    When you feel the need for rest and relaxation you can enjoy some refreshments - lunches, cream teas, afternoon teas from the WI or the full menu in the village pub. Gardens will be open from 1.00pm to 6.00pm on both Saturday and Sunday. Admission to the event is just £5.00 per person, children free, and this gives entry on both days. Free use of the special bus service throughout the village is included, allowing you time to see all of the gardens at your leisure. There's also ample free parking for cars and coaches. We look forward to welcoming you to Ashton under Hill for an enjoyable day out.
