You are so welcome to Newnham. Four plant-lovers’ gardens all set in our beautiful old village nestled in the unspoilt Northamptonshire Uplands. The gardens, from large to small, are packed with spring colour, horticultural delights, lots of inspiration and lovely views. There is something to delight everyone. Spend the day with us enjoying the gardens, buying at our ever-popular plant sale, strolling around the village lanes and visiting our C14 church. Treat yourself to a tasty light lunch and delicious cakes and refreshments in the village hall (several times!). We look forward to seeing you. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, 1 Church Street will not be opening as part of the group. Opens Sunday 4th May.
Set among the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside, our unique 60 acre private woodland garden has a large and notable collection of plants, trees, and shrubs. As May ushers in warmer weather, around 100 magnolias put on a magnificent display, complemented by azaleas and rhododendrons. The garden fills with delightful sights and scents. In previous yrs, we have let some of our areas grow wilder, leaving the grass longer and allowing wild flowers to bloom, which helps support our insect and bird population. Enjoy nature unfolding by taking a leisurely stroll through the garden, relaxing on one of our many benches, or simply soaking up the peaceful atmosphere. Opens Saturday 10th May.
Over an acre of garden wrapped around the old nursery with beautiful views. Planted with many unusual shrubs and herbaceous perennials over the last 30+ yrs to reflect the wide range of plants produced. Plants for sale. Opens Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th May.
