RHS Garden Harlow Carr

One of Yorkshire's most relaxing yet inspiring locations at the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales! The stunning 58 acre garden is seeing exciting new developments while retaining its uniquely tranquil and welcoming atmosphere. Dramatic Rose Revolution borders display the clever use of mixed perennials, grasses and roses beautifully whilst combining sustainable practice, inspirational horticulture with a contemporary twist! Also not to be missed are the superb new Main Borders - a gorgeous mix of herbaceous perennials, grasses and shrubs. Gardens through Time takes you through 200 years of gardening history up to a contemporary garden designed by Diarmuid Gavin as featured in the BBC TWO series. The inspiring Kitchen Garden, superb Streamside and enticing Scented Garden are also highlights of the garden. Harlow Carr shows what can be grown in the north - including some surprises and offers interest for all seasons - from woodland to wildflowers and alpines to autumn colour. Events all year include outdoor theatre, festivals, workshops and children's activities. With an extensive Shop & Plant Centre and the fabulous Bettys Café Tea Rooms offering delicious food and the best teas and coffees - it really is growing to inspire and offers a great day out!
