Holehird Gardens

Holehird is run by the Lakeland Horticultural Society on a volunteer basis. The Society members have created a superb 4 acre garden upon a hillside offering views over the Troutbeck Valley. A walled kitchen garden, rock garden, orchard, heathers, winter flowering shrubs and alpines offer plenty of interest at all times of the year.

Holehird is home to the national collection of astilbe and hydrangeas, as well as polystichum ferns. A demonstration garden promotes horticultural practises appropriate to the Lake District climate.
