We are delighted to announce that from Monday 17th August, Holker Gardens will once again be open!
Available on our website, tickets are timed (计时) on arrival to ensure everyone can enjoy the wonders of our gardens while maintaining proper self-distancing measures. The time item tells you when to enter the gardens. Please book them in advance.
The gardens will present themselves in a most unusual and unique condition due to a number of factors including the hot weather over recent months and the focus by our team to preserve and protect our national treasures.
Alongside our gardens there will be a simple take-away service available from our cafe offering hot & cold drinks, our famous home-made scones, a selection of tray bakes and freshly made sandwiches. Everything will be served in bio-degradable (可降解的) disposables so you can enjoy what we offer right across the grounds.
We are taking every precaution (预防措施) to ensure both the safety of you and of our staff.
Before we open the gates we will have:
• Deep cleaned each open area
• Clearly placed distancing markers around where needed
• Fixed hand washing and/or hand sanitizer stations (洗手液台) around the site
• Provided our staff members with the appropriate PPE (个人防护装备)
