We decided this year to stay closer to home, in Sussex and Kent, using the time saved to fit in two different gardens, close together, on each trip. We hope you will enjoy them!
Please book in via the website only.
Two of the venues, Sissinghurst and Woolbeding, are National Trust so NT members will save on the entrance fee (remember to bring your NT card or you will be charged). Non-NT might like to consider joining.
Prices are based on 20 people but coaches will seat 25. There will be no refunds but tickets are transferrable to other CGS members. We will help place these if there is a waiting list or advertise on the website.
