Planning your visit

Know before you go: Assistance dogs only in the gardens 

Hare Hill welcomes assistance dogs only throughout the gardens. Access to other dogs is limited due to the historic nature of the gardens. Dogs on leads are welcome on the permissive path, that crosses through farmland, to Alderley Edge. The gate from Hare Hill to Alderley Edge is open Wednesday - Sunday 10:30am - 5pm.
