Join Head Gardener Julia and Kilnside Farm in our beautiful walled garden for a celebration of our heritage orchard.
Join us in our beautiful walled garden for a celebration of our heritage orchard and an apple-pressing demonstration.
Your experience begins with a short talk from our Head Gardener, Julia, introducing the orchard’s history, seasonal care, and the traditional apple varieties we grow. Then, watch a live apple-pressing demonstration from Kilnside Farm as they prepare to transform freshly picked apples into delicious cider.
Afterwards, enjoy the fruits of the orchard with a bottle of cider and a warm apple-themed sausage roll from the Old Kitchen Tearoom – the perfect way to welcome autumn.
Hour-long sessions at 11am, 12.30pm and 2pm.
Please note: this is an outdoor event, so dress for the weather. Ticket holders should meet at the Walled Garden entrance 5 minutes before their session.
Tickets: £25 per person which includes Gardens admission, cider and sausage roll.
