A Winter Celebration – with traditional apple pressing and free entry

Our ever-popular Winter Celebration is back!

We will once again open the garden gates with free entry for all as a way of giving back and thanking you all for your continued support throughout the 2025 season.

We are very excited to welcome Finn Varney, a local apple aficionado, who will be giving a traditional apple pressing demonstration in the orchid house throughout the day.

Join us for this interactive experience as you discover your favourite flavours during the apple pressing. Hand-selected fruits from our orchard will be milled and pressed using traditional, hand-powered equipment. You will have the opportunity to taste a variety of single-juice flavours and try your hand at creating your own unique blend. Everyone is welcome to participate and enjoy the process!

Our garden shop will be filled to the brim with beautiful gift ideas, including seasonal books and cards. We’re offering a generous 10% discount on all purchases, and you’ll receive a free Helmsley Walled Garden jute bag when you spend £30 or more. So, why not kickstart your Christmas shopping with us!

Gates open at 10am and close at 4pm (last entry, 3pm). Free entry for all, including well-behaved dogs on leads. No booking required. Pay & Display parking available in the Cleveland Way Car Park, just a few minutes walk from the garden.
