Britain's What's On Event Guide
Turn End Garden Sundays
Come and visit our glorious listed garden, in the heart of Haddenham. The verdant midsummer garden is a delightful place to find a cool, shady spot or explore the flowering delights including lilies, agapanthus and everlasting pea. Enjoy the quiet trickle of the fountain in the office courtyard or brave the heat to explore the myriad plants in full growth in the dry garden. With limited ticket numbers, enjoy a leisurely stroll around the different garden ‘rooms’ or find a quiet place to relax. Visit the studio of Artist in Residence Heather Hunter. Heather specialises in paper art, printing and artist’s books and often uses Turn End garden as a resource.
Turn End is renowned architect Peter Aldington's post-war family house and garden within the historic Buckinghamshire village of Haddenham
Turn End's garden, designed and made by Peter as a natural extension to Turn End house, grew with the buildings, maturing into an internationally renowned garden, gaining publicity through television programmes, and the many articles that have been written about it. In less than an acre, space is used to create an illusion of size - courtyards with pools, a small woodland around old apple trees, a curved glade leading to a series of garden rooms – sunken or raised, sunny or shady, geometric or informal. Turn End is one of only two post war examples where both the house and garden are listed by Historic England.
Please note, Turn End house is the private residence of Mr and Mrs Aldington. The house opens twice a year, on 28th May 2023 and again on Bank Holiday Monday, 28th August 2023. Tickets to the House and Garden Open Days are available via our website.
