About Stockton Bury Gardens

The 4-acre plantsman garden has been created over the last 30 years and is acclaimed for its unusual collection of plants. The garden is set in the heart of a working farm and the medieval farm buildings are very much part of its charm. Features a traditional kitchen garden, one of the finest monkey puzzle trees in the UK, water garden and inspiring mixed borders. There is also small museum featuring a Roman hoard that was found on the farm.

There are plenty of places to explore including an ancient pigeon house, tithe barn, garden museum, cider press and grotto. Adventurous visitors will enjoy trying to find the secret garden. The garden offers interest from April through to the end of September. The early colour is exceptional with anemones and woodland plants being a highlight.

Listed in The Times (June 2017) as one of the top 20 gardens to visit in summer. The garden café was listed in the top 30 garden cafes in The Telegraph summer 2017. Awarded second place in the Midlands category in the 100 Best Gardens Competition (Gardens News Magazine 2018-2019) and featured in the RHS The Garden magazine in Sept 2019.
