The stunning gardens of Yoakley House in Margate will open to visitors for a special Open Gardens Afternoon.
2.30pm - 4.30pm
A rare opportunity to explore beautifully maintained grounds while supporting a local charity.
Taking place on Sunday 6th September, the event welcomes members of the public to wander through the gardens, enjoy seasonal planting at its peak and discover a peaceful green oasis set within the grounds of Yoakley House, its almshouses and care home.
Head Gardener Paul Twyman and his dedicated team have been carefully nurturing plants to ensure the gardens are looking their very best. Visitors can expect colourful borders, mature planting, hidden corners and plenty of inspiration for their own outdoor spaces.
As well as enjoying the grounds, guests will be able to relax with traditional tea and delicious homemade cake, making the afternoon a perfect outing for families, friends and garden enthusiasts.
The event is organised in support of Michael Yoakley's Charity, with funds helping to enhance life for residents and maintain facilities that might otherwise be beyond the charity's means. Previous projects funded through community fundraising have included garden lighting and commercial washing machines, demonstrating the lasting impact of local support.
Advance booking is recommended, tickets will also be available on the day (cash preferred).
Tickets cost £5 and tea and cake will be on sale. All proceeds to our League of Friends.
