Description

View of The Valley Gardens.

The Valley Gardens and the Pinewoods cover some 17 acres and display alpine rarities in spring, a romantic rhododendron dell, seasonal bedding displays, some good roses and a magnificent dahlia display in late summer. Part of the Valley Gardens is known as Bogs field where it is believed that a greater number of mineral springs come to the surface than any other known place on earth. 36 of Harrogate's 88 mineral wells are found within the gardens, with no two being alike.
