Open Gardens
at Waresley Park Estate

Step into the beauty of Waresley Park Estate this Bank Holiday and enjoy a relaxed day exploring our gardens, open spaces and seasonal experiences.

Waresley Park Estate is a 120-acre site known for its scenic, rural landscape designed by Humphry Repton in ca. 1792. Repton’s work often focused on enhancing the natural scenery, and at Waresley, his design efforts are reflected in the existing, picturesque parkland.

Our Open Gardens are designed to be enjoyable for all ages, with garden walks, family-friendly activities, food and drink, and a warm Waresley welcome in a beautiful rural setting.

Explore the gardens and grounds

Enjoy access to selected areas of the Estate that are usually closed to the public, including our beautiful walled garden and water garden, with plenty of space to stroll, pause and take in the surroundings. You will also be able to explore our beautiful spa and our new gym and padel courts.

Please note, there will be no access to the lake, main house and lodges during this event. 

A range of food and drink options will be available for you to choose from across the site, including:

  • Handcrafted pizzas cooked in our courtyard pizza oven

  • BBQ 

  • Tea and scones in the walled garden

  • Licensed bar

  • Hot and soft drinks

We will also be launching our very own pale ale…not to be missed! 

There will be plenty of activities for you and your family to enjoy, including:

  • Garden games in the water garden

  • An Easter Egg Hunt, workshops and experiences

  • Sound bath trial sessions, in a picturesque spot of the gardens, overlooking the Estate.

Arrival and access

To ensure your visit is smooth, a one-way traffic system will be in place. Signage will be provided around the Estate to guide you to parking, entrances and activity areas.

Weather 

As with all outdoor events, plans may be adjusted depending on the weather. We will communicate any changes in advance, where needed.
