Pitmedden Garden
To protect people, all our properties are now closed. This includes gardens and grounds, as well as car parks at our countryside places. We urge people to follow the latest advice and stay at home. We look forward to welcoming you again, once it’s safe for everyone.

The surrounding woods are a haven for birds and other wildlife.
The adjacent Museum of Farming Life boasts an extensive collection of domestic and agricultural artefacts.
Our gift shop has a great selection of gifts, as well as seasonal garden produce when available, including our delicious apple juice and jelly.
