Brilliant design in the form of vibrant colours and meticulously manicured shapes give Pitmedden Garden its unique charm. With almost 6 miles of clipped hedging, sculptures and built heritage, the parterres at the heart of the garden are a masterpiece of intricate patterns and fragrant flowers.
In 2021 we reimagined the upper terrace parterre for the modern world with a fresh, sustainable garden. A biodiverse, species-rich meadow weaves and drifts, offering changing patterns and colours. Combined with our orchard of more than 200 fruit trees, Pitmedden really is a delight for the senses.
As we enter harvest season, the boughs in our orchards are laden with apples, pears and plums. We’ve picked a few highlights across the Trust where you can get your fruit fix!
A garden that’s good for the soul and good for the planet! Members of our team and visitors at Pitmedden Garden share why they love this special place.
