Open from Friday 29th May 2020.
Welcome to Howick Hall Gardens and Arboretum. We are delighted to invite you and your household back to enjoy the open space that Howick Hall Gardens and Arboretum provide. Please give others sufficient space to maintain appropriate social distancing.
This may require some patience on narrower paths or in busier areas.
(NB WE WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTING CARD OR CONTACTLESS PAYMENTS)
- Keeping it all outdoors – As the risk of transmission of Coronavirus is significantly less outside we have closed the Visitors Centre. The Earl Grey Tea Rooms also remain closed in keeping with Government restrictions on the hospitality industry. The Church is also locked. If you wish to bring a picnic feel free to do so. We would ask you take any litter away with you.
Unfortunately we do not allow dogs, except assistance dogs.
We are a registered charity and don’t receive any public funding, therefore your admission price helps us to maintain the Gardens and Arboretum.
