open garden at The Long House, Westdean
Thursday 23rd June,11am -5pm
Don’t miss the only public opening this year of The Long House’s celebrated oneacre garden on Thursday 23rd June. Open from 11am until 5pm, we’ll be serving, all day, tea, coffee and some of the best cakes in Sussex. If you’ve not been before our visitors have compared the garden for romance, atmosphere and cottage garden planting to Great Dixter and Sissinghurst. Lavenders, hollyhocks, roses, a wild flower meadow, a long perennial border full of old favourites and interesting
unusual plants, a water folly and a pond are just some of the features. Visitors to The Long House get both a surprise and a bonus when they come to our garden because Westdean is one of the South Downs National Park’s best kept secrets: a charming medieval hamlet with a 12th-century church, a 13th- century parsonage and a handful of picturesque houses, all tucked away in a small valley. So you can enjoy not only our garden but a gentle amble around Westdean as well. Admission £6, children free. No dogs. Plants for sale. Free parking in the village. Proceeds to All Saints Church, Westdean and village funds.
