Hessle West Open Gardens

approx 20 gardens open Hessle, near Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire
Sunday 17th May 2026
11.00am to 5.00pm

Hessle is a small town next to the North end of the Humber Bridge.

Our policy is to welcome all types of garden and gardeners. They range from the mature Edwardian to the small modern garden, with examples of family-centred plots and a sprinkling of the wild and quirky.

As our gardens are widely spread, we provide a free minibus service, taking about 20 minutes to complete the circular route. This is marked on the map/ticket.

Refreshments are scattered plentifully as indicated on the map/ticket. Feel free to sit on our garden seats and enjoy drinks, cakes, or a BBQ, or bring your own picnic. Well-behaved dogs on leads welcome.

Proceeds:  Half the proceeds to Dove House Hospice and the remainder to various local charities.

Plant sales:  Plant sales at several gardens.

Cost:  £5.00 adults, accompanied children free.

How to get tickets / programmes:  Map/tickets can be bought at any garden displaying a "Garden Open" notice and balloons. A draft map can be obtained as a PDF via our email or Facebook, available from two weeks before the opening date.
