A unique setting for events...
Cheshire's gardens create a unique setting for events, with dramatic Peak-fringed moorlands, formal lawns and gardens, historic halls and stunning Ice Age lakes - or meres, as we call them in Cheshire - setting the stage for our exciting events.
Our events programme is packed year round, so you can see the ever-changing beauty of our Gardens of Distinction in all their lush, fiery glory.
We're proud of our gardens - and the people who devote their time and effort to creating them, nurturing them and caring for them, and we'd love you to come back time and time again.
