Hanley Swan sits at the foothills of the fabulous Malvern Hills!
Over the May Spring Bank Holiday weekend, the villages enthusiastically invite you to share our good fortune and join our annual Garden Party.
Below is a copy of a past leaflet so you can see a little information about the gardens on show most years. It does sometimes change from year to year, so if you’ve been before, you will certainly enjoy seeing how each garden has developed and catching up with any new gardens on the list. Each garden offers something different and everyone is so welcoming and interesting to chat to.
Enjoy a lovely stay in Hanley Swan and Escape to the Country at Orchard Side Bed and Breakfast and The Annex, self-catering, dog-friendly accommodation.
Hello, are dogs on leads welcome in the gardens? Thank you
Dogs are welcome to the Open Gardens, but we suggest you ask the garden owner before entering with your dog. It’s a very friendly village
