Garden delights await for the National Garden Scheme 2023

Middleton Hall Retirement Village invites all to experience the splendour of its 45-acre estate as part of the National Garden Scheme on Saturday 19th August, 11am-4pm. Tickets cost £5.00 for an adult and free for a child and can be booked here or bought on the day.

Throughout the day visitors will have a rare opportunity to explore the extensive private grounds at the retirement village in Middleton St George near Darlington. There is plenty on offer for garden-lovers to see, with a mix of traditional formal gardens combined with themed areas such as Japanese planting, Mediterranean and butterfly gardens, a newly opened ceramic garden, as well as a vibrant collection of community allotments tended by village residents.

A choice of walks through the estate’s extensive woodland, including a wheelchair and pushchair accessible route, takes in views across the stunning site as well as a peaceful reflection area to relax and take stock in. Visitors can also join one of two free informal tours of the Middleton Hall grounds being led by the Estates team at 12 noon and 2:45pm.
