Helmsley Walled Garden

A very serene and beautiful garden against the backdrop of Helmsley castle! We parked the car at Cleveland Way car park (£6 for 6 hours), so had plenty of time to explore! The clouds came over which meant we popped into the cafe for coffee and scones for a bit! The glasshouse was converted into an interesting cafe with plenty of fixtures to create interests all around! When the sun finally broke through, it was so pleasant to walk round! There’s still some remaining spring flowers dotted about which added splashes of colour amongst the greenery. It’s completely dog friendly in all areas which was so nice! She got a treat when we purchased the ticket which she loved, thank you!!

Lovely gardens to spend an hour or two. £10 entry is a bit steep as you could get round quickly. There is a large, busy cafe with lovely outdoor tables but I didn't have time to go in.

A great walled garden, paths that are easy on the feet, wheel chair accessible, chickens and ducks, statues , scent from the roses is lovely , 10 quid day ticket or 15 for yearly pass . Helmsley castle overlooks the gardens .

Beautiful gardens with a great variety of flowers on show. It was a little expensive to get in for the size of the actual gardens (hence the 4/5). The food and service in the cafe were excellent

This is a wonderful place to visit if you're in the area. A glorious restored garden you could spend hours in & getting ideas for your own garden, or just enjoying he tranquility, the scents, and the colours. Refreshments are available at the tea room, and it lovely to sit outside on a sunny day - beware of all the small birds right beneath your table, looking for crumbs ! The entrance fee also allows you to enter free if you return within 12 months.

A wonderful walled garden. From the outside it does not look big but the walled garden is huge. Greenhouses, kitchen gardens, orchard and a beautiful central border section, this is done by volunteers. £10 entry and £11 with gift aid. Other ticket options available but see the website. On site cafe available to. You can also buy fruit and veg grown for a donation. Plenty in August / Sept / Oct. See the ticket office on arrival. Allow several hours and take a picnic. No onsite parking but a 5 minute walk there is a pay and display which is also for the castle.

Beautiful little gardens. It was lovely to walk around with our 1year old. She was loving the flowers. There are some nice areas to sit down and listen to the birds. You can also admire the view of the Helmsley castle. I just think that they are rather small and £8 per person is on an expensive side when you think how small they are. Probably take a good half an hour to see everything. But still beautiful gardens.

Gorgeous community garden just off the centre of Helmsley. Wide variety of planting and areas of pocket gardening from formal to nice wild areas. Community growing plots in places as well areas of orchard. The colour was lovely when we were there in mid July especially in the herbaceous borders. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and there is a small garden shop as well as a cafe. Overall, well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Wonderful 5-acre walled garden, adjacent to Helmsley Castle. Despite the rainy day, we couldn't pull ourselves away, though we warmed up with tea and cakes in the cafe.

A place to go for nice good and beautiful plants. This is a lovely garden which sells its plants it has a wide range of clematis and perinnials. It is a very relaxing place to walk around. It also has a shop where they sell hand made jewerlly, walking sticks and prety clothes. There is a shop there that sells all sorts of envirometal goods. They sell the wool fat soap that yorkshire is famous for. The best thing about this place is the cafe. Outside you get to sit under victorian vines and have some wonderful fresh food witht the ingrediants grown onsite. How fresh is that. They also do some nice cakes that go down well with a stron cup of yorkshire tea.
