National Garden Scheme Open Gardens

Explore the beautiful gardens of Chilworth Manor whilst enjoying our English wine.

Daphne, Lady Heald - who, with her husband Lionel, took over Chilworth Manor in 1946 - was Chairwoman of the National Garden Scheme for 30 years. Chilworth Manor has continued to support the National Garden Scheme Open Gardens since 2008.

You can come and explore the 18th century terraced walled garden, topiary, herbaceous borders and ancient ponds whilst enjoying Chilworth Manor Brut Rosé, still Rosé and Classic Cuvée, served by the glass or bottle at our pop-up bar.

This event takes place annually on the 3rd Sunday in May.

National Garden Scheme Chelsea Plant Sale at Chilworth

We were honoured to host the much anticipated NGS Chelsea Plant Sale at Chilworth Manor this year on Saturday 1st June.

Naturally we served our premium quality sparkling and rosé wines by the glass or bottle at our pop-up bar.

Christmas at Chilworth

Festive cheer in a stunning setting

Christmas at Chilworth has come a long way since the children used to sell 50 trees in front of the house!

To meet the ever-growing demand for our trees, this year we're creating more space and giving you more time to enjoy festive glogg, hot chocolate and wine produced from the very vines you're looking at, available at our pop-up bars.

We'll have children's walks and other fun activities too. You'll be pleased to know we also have more parking!

Carols at Chilworth

Feel the echoes of Chilworth’s rich layered history this Christmas. As the voices of the 11th century Chilworth monks used to be raised in plain song, now we plan to sing Christmas carols together in the vineyard, with festive glogg, hot chocolate and wine produced from the very vines you're looking at.

Please save Friday 6th December in your diaries and sign up to our mailing list to stay up to date with the details.
