Royal Windsor Rose & Horticultural Society Garden Tour
Eythrope Walled Garden Tour
Join us for a private tour of Eythorpe Walled Garden with Daniel Jones, winner of the Royal Windsor Flower Show Master Gardener in 2024. The tour allows 27 lucky members to discover the four-acre walled garden, glasshouses and orchard at Eythrope, Waddesdon Manor.
This is a member-only event. The cost of the ticket is £20 per person.
You will need to make your own way to Waddesdon Manor. However, the ticket price includes a grounds entry ticket to the manor, which has cafes and restaurants.
The meeting point will be at 1.15 pm at the Welcome Pavillon, Waddesdon Manor from where we will be taken to Eythorpe.
The gardens were created by Miss Alice de Rothschild, a passionate and knowledgeable horticulturalist renowned for her perfectionism and innovation. The walled garden at Eythrope was and is a productive garden, which supplied vegetables, fruit, and herbs, as well as cut flowers for her household, friends, and family. Today, alongside the family, produce is used in Waddesdon’s restaurants, hotel and food markets. A working garden on this scale is rare in the 21st century. Eythrope is legendary in the garden world for the excellence of gardening and as a haven for traditional techniques that might otherwise be lost.
