Britain's What's On Event Guide
Turn End Garden Sundays
Come and visit our glorious listed garden, in the heart of the historic village of Haddenham. Late summer brings fiery colour to the garden including gladioli and tender plants such as dahlias and cannas. Our collection of Begonias thrive on these balmy days, protected from the heat of the sun in the deep shade of the Coach House. With limited ticket numbers, find a cool place to relax or explore the many different areas at leisure.
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.
Turn End house is the private residence of Mr and Mrs Aldington and will be closed. The House and Garden Open Day is on 28th August 2023. Bookings via the website.
