RHS Garden Hyde Hall consists of an eight-acre cultivated hilltop area, a colour-themed herbaceous border, two ponds, a rose garden, farmhouse garden and woodland garden. Situated in an area of Essex that has very low rainfall, it showcases the challenges of gardening in dry conditions. Beyond the cultivated area lies 360 acres of woodland, hedgerows, meadows and pasture – a haven for wildlife with multitudes of songbirds and hares making it their home. Family activities include ‘I-Spy’ spotter sheets and themed trails. With big open skies Hyde Hall is a great place for kite flying – children who bring their own kite (during school holidays & weekends) are admitted free. There’s also a small play area situated close to the visitor centre.
