Repton NGS Village Gardens

Repton is a thriving village dating back to Anglo Saxon times. The village gardens are all very different, ranging from the very small to very large, several of them have new features for 2024. Askew Cottage is a professionally designed garden and has many structural features linked together by curving paths. 34 High Street is a traditional old-established garden at the rear of one of the historic village properties. 10 Chestnut Way is a plantaholic's garden much changed over winter - be prepared to be surprised. 22 Pinfold Close is a small garden but is packed full with a special interest in tropical plants and has a new orchid house. Repton Allotments is a small set of allotments currently undergoing a revival with community area, new polytunnel and attractive views across Derbyshire.
