RHS Harlow Carr.

Please click on the heading ” RHS Harlow Carr ” for more information.

IT IS WITH REGRET THAT THE OUTING  WE  HAD PLANNED TO BURNBY HALL GARDENS AND WHITE WYNN, ELLERTON HAS HAD TO BE CANCELLED DUE TO A LACK OF BOOKINGS WHICH HAVE MADE IT NOT ECONOMICALLY VIABLE. However an alternative visit to RHS Harlow Carr has now been arranged. These are the details:-

Our secretary Joan Waite points out that Harlow Carr need to know how many members of the club will be visiting so, if you haven’t already done so, please give your name to Joan either by email – cookridgegardenclub@icloud.com – or by ‘phone – 0113 267 6185. Joan will also need to know if you wish to include friends or relatives ( if possible and if numbers allow ) in the group. Please contact Joan for more information etc. Please also note the following important points:-

• As a club we are affiliated to the RHS. It is primarily because of that affiliation that we are able to make this visit as a group.
• Those members of the Cookridge Garden Club who are not also individual members of the R.H.S. would not normally be able to enter Harlow Carr without charge.
• For that reason the group will be admitted as a group at 12.30 prompt. Please allow plenty of time for your journey to ensure that you arrive at the main entrance to the grounds in good time. Late entrants will not be admitted.
• There are excellent car parks at Harlow Carr  including car park 3 which is found beyond the gardens on the right hand side. It usually offers a lot of free spaces as most people tend to use the more visible car parks just before the main entrance building. There is also a bus service from Harrogate bus station ( Service 6 ) which runs about every 20 minutes and stops near the traffic lights two or three hundred yards from the main entrance.
• So, if you haven’t let Joan know yet but are interested please contact her as above. Spaces are limited and it would be a pity to miss what is sure to be a very enjoyable visit.
