Gardenvisit Editorial

A grand eighteenth century house with terrace and woodland gardens. It is based on the transition idea, running from terrace to lawn to woodland garden. The latter is planted with rhododendrons and other acidic shrubs. Howick was the family seat of the Grey family until 1973. The second Earl Grey (2nd) became Prime Minister and introduced important electoral reforms in 1832. Earl Grey tea is named after him.
Address Howick, Alnwick, Northumberland, England, NE66 3LB
Opening times April to October. Daily. Open 12pm to 6pm.

    Wow...so understated and yet a place with a wealth of choice trees, lovely herbaceous plantings and bags of space to wander and enjoy a country house park. It is fantastic to see so many choice trees used in the landscape so that they almost disappear into the setting, instead of the 'collection' context most are found. Find the big clump of Cercidiphyllum !
    And of course one must'nt miss on a cup of Earl grey tea in the tea rooms.
    If you are visiting Alnwick Grdens come here as well.
