Arley Hall and Gardens (one of Cheshire's Gardens of Distinction)

Arley Hall and Gardens

Arley Hall and Gardens, Northwich, Cheshire, CW9 6NA

Tel: 01565 777353


Home of the Egerton-Warburton family for over 500 years. The rhyming squire, Rowland Egerton-Warburton, wrote songs and verses for the amusement of fellow members of Tarporley Hunt Club. These were collected and published in 1846 as Hunting Songs; his rhyming signposts are to be seen in the grounds of the Hall.


The gardens open to the public include the first double herbaceous border in the country and there's also an interesting avenue of cylindrical trees. Additionally there's a craft centre here. From February 08, as part of Cheshire's Year of Gardens 08, look out for resident sculptor Rachel Ramchurn's new creation in The Grove.


Arley's annual garden festival held at the end of June attracts the crowds, so expect extra traffic. See the map below
