Walled Gardens

The privately owned historic gardens are a key part of Croome’s landscape designed by ‘Capability’ Brown. Although we look after the rest of the parkland, the walled gardens are owned by Chris and Karen Cronin who acquired it separately and rescued it from ruin in the year 2000.

They have restored many of the buildings and large greenhouses with great care and attention but much more work is still to be carried out with the help of a team of volunteers and gardeners.

What to expect

You'll be able to chat to volunteers and see the extensive restoration work on the greenhouses, the beautiful border planting, the rose garden and working vegetable plots of the five acre walled gardens.

How to find the Walled Gardens

The gardens can only be accessed through Croome’s visitor centre where admission tickets can be purchased.

Walled Garden entry prices are below. Please show your National Trust membership card or, if you're not a member, purchase a parkland admission to venture around the park and lakeside.

Dogs are not allowed to enter the walled garden but tether hooks are provided outside the entrance gate.

Opening times and admission prices

The gardens are open from 11am until 5pm (last entry 4pm) every Friday, Saturday and Sunday (plus Bank Holidays) from 14 April until the end of September.  

As the Walled Gardens are privately owned there is an additional admission fee of £5 per adult (children free) which goes towards its restoration.
