RHS Garden Harlow Carr & Harrogate

Day 1. Sunday We depart for RHS Garden Harlow Carr, a stunning contrast to the rugged Yorkshire landscape. Spanning 58 acres, this exceptional garden is rich in history and full of character, offering a diverse range of plants, seasonal displays, and scenic walking paths. From vibrant borders to tranquil woodland areas, there’s plenty to explore. Whether you’re a keen gardener or simply love the outdoors, Harlow Carr provides the perfect setting for inspiration, relaxation, and connection with nature. Later this afternoon, we make the short journey to Harrogate and check in at The Old Swan Hotel. This evening, enjoy a relaxing three-course dinner.

Day 2. Monday Following breakfast, we enjoy some free time in Harrogate, one of Yorkshire’s most refined and picturesque towns. Known for its historic architecture, beautiful gardens, and stylish atmosphere, Harrogate offers an appealing mix of boutique shops, galleries, and antiques dealers. Stroll along its elegant, tree-lined avenues or relax in one of the many charming pavement cafés. The Montpellier Quarter is a highlight, filled with exclusive shops and award-winning restaurants. Be sure to return to the hotel in time for your included afternoon tea - a delightful treat. Later this afternoon, we depart and begin our comfortable journey home.
