Beningbrough

About the garden

In the Yorkshire countryside between York and Harrogate sits Beningbrough, a historic hall and art gallery surrounded by gardens and parkland. Discover the eight acres of formal gardens, including a two-acre walled kitchen garden, herbaceous borders and newly designed areas. Each area shines at different times of the year, giving visitors a reason to return. Historic trees and wildlife pockets add to the year-round appeal.

Beningbrough is a place of continual development. Working alongside the National Trust, RHS Chelsea Flower Show Gold winner Andy Sturgeon has developed a long-term vision for the garden, which began with the planting of 300,000 spring bulbs and the completion of the first new garden, the Pergola, where visitors can now sit under oak beams in the shade of white wisteria. Head to the walled garden to see how the edibles are growing, and from summer 2024, visitors can also explore the newly created Mediterranean Garden.
