It’s a rare opportunity to explore hidden courtyards, sweeping lawns, vibrant borders and imaginative planting schemes that reflect the character and charm of this unique coastal town. From traditional English country style gardens to contemporary spaces with architectural planting, each garden has its own personality. Expect roses climbing warm brick walls, herbaceous borders alive with pollinators, sculptural trees, ponds rich with wildlife and quiet seating areas perfect for a moment of calm.

It’s a friendly, sociable event that welcomes visitors from across the New Forest and beyond. St Barbe Museum + Art Gallery will be open all day, including the café, offering the chance to enjoy the 2026 Open Exhibition, explore local history and relax with refreshments. Teas and homemade cakes will be served at the United Reformed Church. Visit our plant stall outside the United Reformed Church or at 17 Ambleside Road.
