About

Join us for a special day in support of the National Garden Scheme at Herstmonceux Castle Estate.

The gardens and grounds at Herstmonceux Castle Estate first opened to the National Garden Scheme in 1927. Since then, the scheme has raised millions for nursing and health charities across the UK. At the end of the 2025 season alone, donations totalled an incredible £3,875,596.

On Wednesday, 22nd July, explore the beautiful gardens and grounds while helping raise money for this important cause.
