Allium 'Purple Sensation'
This 5-acre garden, built in 1759, is situated beneath the ruins of Helmsley Castle. From 1984 to 1994, the garden became derelict. Then restoration started, and today, the resulting patchwork of intimate gardens are planted with flowers, fruit and vegetables, including a Hot Border and a Physic Garden. The highly recommended Vine House Café provides a wide range of refreshments and we can also enjoy the garden shop and plant centre, which includes a range of plants propagated in the garden.
