Earl Grey Tea House
The gardens at Howick are deliberately aimed at garden lovers with the extensive grounds offering a wide variety of plants throughout the year.
In the spring and early summer the Woodland Garden is particularly lovely with rhododendrons, camellias and magnolias. The formal gardens, including the herbaceous borders, are in front of the house and come into their own from June onwards. A new Bog Garden has been developed, mostly planted with herbaceous material grown from seed collected in the wild, which will be of particular interest to dedicated plantsmen. In April there are spectacular drifts of daffodils to be seen throughout the grounds.
Howick Hall Gardens has been rated by the BBC Gardener's World Magazine as one of the top 5 coastal gardens in the country and rated the Independent Magazine as 'one of the Best 10 Gardens to visit this spring'
