Prizes

Entry and afternoon tea for 2 at Barnsdale Gardens and overnight accommodation and breakfast at The Barnsdale x1


In 1983, Geoff Hamilton, the much-loved BBC Gardeners World presenter founded Barnsdale, developing the gardens from a pasture that he had ploughed. The BBC filmed there from the moment he moved in cementing Barnsdale as the new home of Gardeners' World. Geoff's down-to-earth style whilst filming each show made him a hit with the viewers.

Nick Hamilton now continues his father's legacy at the helm of Barnsdale and has kept the sustainable ethos alive. In fact, for over 30 years the gardens have been kept peat and chemical-free.

We are offering 1 x prize for a lucky winner and their guest to have free entry to Barnsdale Gardens with complimentary afternoon tea, followed by accommodation and breakfast at the wonderful newly refurbished The Barnsdale hotel just a few minutes drive from Barnsdale Gardens. The Barnsdale is the newest hotel acquired by The Signet Collection, with brand new spa facilities opening this summer!
