With over 140 acres of stunning gardens, woodlands, and parkland, Harewood offers a rich outdoor experience like no other.
Our historic gardens and grounds boast an impressive collection of plants from around the world, reflecting a dazzling variety of styles.
From the formal Terrace, with its elegant fountains, topiary, and vibrant flower borders, to the traditional Walled Garden, where vegetables, herbs, fruit, and flowers flourish, there’s something for every garden lover.
In the Lakeside Woodland Gardens, a waterfall cascades into the Himalayan Garden, alive with rhododendrons, primulas, and exotic plants.
All of this is set against the romantic backdrop of the landscape created by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown in the 18th century.
Whatever the season, Harewood’s breathtaking views will captivate you.

Help protect our landscape
Caring for our landscape isn’t just about offering stunning, contemporary Gardens for visitors to enjoy; it’s also about boosting biodiversity at Harewood. By planting species that provide excellent habitats, we’re creating a haven for birds, insects, and other wildlife.
