Sunday 8 June: 10.30am-11.45am or 12.45pm-2pm. Booking essential.
Explore the beautiful gardens and grounds surrounding Sharpham House, with our gardeners as your guides.
Our year-round retreat programme means that there are few opportunities for the public to visit.
But we're inviting you to tour our gardens and grounds, to discover the variety of plants, trees, fruit and vegetables that are grown and managed at Sharpham using sustainable, wildlife-supporting practices.
Head Gardeners Bryony and Emily will lead you through the formal, woodland and walled gardens that form the inspiring backdrop to our nature-connection mindfulness retreats and courses.
