This year’s Porlock Open Gardens Weekend, which takes place on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st May from 2-6pm, will give visitors the chance to explore gardens of all styles and sizes across the village. There are many gardens open, all offering a chance to visit gardens which would not normally be open to the public.
Porlock Visitor Centre Manager Deborah Stanyon said: “There’s a wonderful variety of gardens including large wild gardens and gardens featuring unusual trees and shrubs. You can also view terraced gardens, gardens with ponds, gardens with water features and gardens with stunning views over the sea and moorland.”
Proceeds from the event will go towards the running of Porlock Visitor Centre. Weekend tickets cost £8.00 per person – sorry but no dogs are permitted – and are available from Porlock Visitor Centre ( Tel: 01643 863150), Gift and Candy, and SPAR.
