Mid Lambrook Manor Open Garden, Sunday 23rd June, between 2pm – 5pm
This event is unique and the owners are particularly keen to share their beautiful garden with the public. The garden is only open on one day a year and the entry fees are donated for the upkeep of our 12th century church. It is a perfect afternoon for families as there are endless areas to explore. The home-made teas served by the ladies of the village are equally outstanding! Last year the event was rained off so this will be the first time it has been seen since 2011.
