York Gate Garden, Leeds, West Yorkshire
A Grade II National Heritage garden inspired by the Arts & Crafts movement.
A unique collection of 14 garden rooms sit exquisitely within the one-acre site, sitting beside a striking sand garden and tranquil wildflower meadow. A cafe serves wholesome homemade food, reflecting the seasons, using the homegrown produce from the Kitchen Garden. Don’t go home without a memento of your visit. The gift shop sells contemporary gifts for the home and garden including our exclusive range; whilst a wide range of plants are available, all of which are propagated from plants in the garden. The garden was generously gifted to Perennial, the only UK charity dedicated to helping anyone working in horticulture, for its long-term preservation.
