From Kersey to Felixstowe through to Woodbridge and Halesworth, a number of gardens across the region are opening for the public to visit and enjoy this summer in aid of St Elizabeth Hospice as part of its annual Great Garden Trail. 

The 2023 Great Garden Trail is being held from April to September, featuring a great variety of gardens supported by whole villages as well as beautiful hidden gems for the public to explore in return for a donation to St Elizabeth Hospice.

Lesley Rawlinson, Community and Partnerships Fundraiser at St Elizabeth Hospice, said: "It is that time of the year again where gardens across the region open their gates in support of the hospice and we cannot wait to join everyone in enjoying all the gardens taking part in the hospice's Great Garden Trail 2023.

"Every year it is a real privilege to see the fantastic green fingered skills of gardeners throughout the county and we are so thankful for their support.

"So do make sure to visit our website to see a full list of gardens taking part in this year's trail and to find out more about how you can support your local hospice."

In total 26 locations will feature in this year's trail, from solo gardens to communities opening together for the public to explore this summer, including Rydal Mount (near Halesworth), Otley Hall, Kersey Village Open Gardens and Columbine Hall.

Hew Stevenson, from Columbine Hall added: "It's a privilege to share our garden with visitors to help St Elizabeth Hospice who provide the kindness and support we may all need one day. We've done so for a number of years now and the hospice team are such nice people to work with."

A full list of locations and dates of the gardens taking part in the trail can be found by visiting www.stelizabethhospice.org.uk/great-garden-trail/, as can details regarding entry and tickets.
