St Davids Open Gardens 2024

Loading Events

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the walls and hedges of St Davids, Britain’s smallest city? Well, wonder no more! The St Davids Open Gardens event is taking place on the 15th and 16th June 2024 at Penrhiw Priory and in the gardens of St Davids, offering a unique opportunity to discover the enchanting gardens tucked away in this picturesque corner of Wales.

Penrhiw Priory is the definition of tranquillity nestled in acres of private gardens, enveloped by woodland paths, a river and a meadow. Penrhiw is surrounded by a naturally diverse and wildlife-rich landscape, including the Wildflower Meadow, where you can find flowers typical of traditional hay meadows, such as the yellow pea-like flower of Bird’s-foot trefoil, the purple thistle-like heads of black knapweed, and the cheerful white heads of the oxeye daisy. Parking for Penrhiw is available in the Meadow, which is through a gateway on the right-hand side, approximately 50 metres past Penrhiw Priory’s main entrance. Dogs are welcome on our grounds, on a lead.

There will also be a Gardeners’ Market in Cross Square, thanks to the support of St Davids City Community Council with stalls including plants, flowers, charcoal and bee products. We are also pleased to welcome the Pembrokeshire Friends of Prostate Cymru who be present to promote their awareness programme, as well as the local environmental community group, EcoDewi, who will be on hand to talk about their projects, how you can get involved and all about their collaboration with St Davids Cathedral to create the new community garden.

Find out all the gardens taking part here. Please note that some gardens have slightly different timings, which will be mentioned in their garden write-up.
