Our Cultural Calendar

Explore our cultural events

We have a carefully curated calendar of events set within beautiful outdoor spaces at Borde Hill – from festivals in the Parkland, to live music in the Garden, and Open Air Opera evenings on the South Lawn in front of the Elizabethan House.

Eating at Borde Hill

Visit the Gardeners’ Retreat Café, open daily from 10am and located in the beautiful surroundings between the Rose Garden and the Mid Summer Border. It’s the perfect spot to sit and relax with a barista coffee, light lunch or a delicious cup of tea.

Choose from an enticing selection of freshly made sandwiches, toasties, and savoury delights, as well as a delicious array of cakes and bakes.
