Scampston Walled Garden

About

The award‑winning Scampston Walled Garden offers a stunning contemporary landscape designed by celebrated Dutch landscape architect Piet Oudolf. Set amid the rolling Wolds, the garden features a meticulously curated array of grasses, perennials and woodland plantings that create a dynamic seasonal experience. Visitors wander through the low‑lying grass waves, explore the ‘silent garden’ and savor the flavours of the on‑site Pantry Café & Kitchen, which serves light lunches and cream teas made from locally sourced ingredients. The estate’s Regency‑style Scampston Hall, with its richly appointed interiors and famous Palladian bridge, completes the visit with a blend of history and modern design. A highlight for families and garden‑enthusiasts alike is the collection of guided tours offered during the summer season. These include a detailed walk through Hall Gardens and the surrounding parkland trails, as well as special holiday events such as the annual Plant Fair, Christmas tree picking, and a range of seasonal workshops for all ages. Whether you’re after a quiet stroll, a family outing, or an educational experience, Scampston Walled Garden delivers an accessible, memorable day out in the countryside.
