Visit the Garden Hub sponsored by Neptune
Canterbury & Tonbridge for three days of talks
and workshops. Whether you have a courtyard
or couple of acres, our experts will have plenty
of gardening tips to inform and inspire.
Hole Park
This is one of the best known gardens in Kent, a worthy winner of
Visit Kent’s Garden of the Year award in 2016. Four generations
of the Barham family have created a wonderful 16 acre garden in a
magical parkland setting that must be everyone’s dream. Extensive
yew hedges and herbaceous borders should be at their best for our
opening, with meadow and woodland gardens to explore as well.
The colourful gardens enjoy far reaching views over the hills,
woods and fields of the picturesque Kentish Weald. They are
a skilful mix of formal design and more naturalised planting,
giving colour throughout the seasons. The Weald in the
Garden of England offers a wide variety of gardens, large and
small, to interest and captivate gardeners and non-gardeners
alike. Hole Park Gardens hold their own against the more
well-known gardens of Sissinghurst and Great Dixter.
