Little oasis of a community garden in Whickham. Solely run by volunteers. Interesting collection of plants, wildlife pond and Wendy house for little ones to visit. Modern Orangery Cafe on site is independently run. It offers a good range of snacks and speciality cakes.
We were out walking in Whickham having never really been in the area on foot before. Stumbled on the place and were fascinated at how lovely it was. Loads of quaint, creative and unique pieces decorate the gardens and pond. A really ingenious use of space. The Orangery cafe sits within the grounds and is also well worth a visit
Accidentally discovered this little gem in Whickham, the garden has many tranquil seating area, perfect for a sit down/coffee and community gathering place. They have seedling for sale too, and excitedly looking forward to their butterfly garden. Free welcoming visit, my kids were happily playing home at one of their lovely kiddy house.
Just love going here for although it is small it has a caff pond birds rabbits butterfly compound so plenty to see
Lovely tranquil gardens with very nice orangery for refreshments.
It's a beautiful garden and nice little cafe.
I've lived nearby for years and often passed by, today I ventured in meeting up with a friend. Such a hidden gem, beautiful, well kept gardens with clear pathways. Plenty of places to sit and waterproof pods. A nice cafe with a simple menu. The bacon bap was tasty, my friend had scrambled egg and bacon on toast, also looked lovely. Friendly staff and also very clean. Would recommend you to visit.
