Tickets

The future of Cruden Farm is not possible without the support of the general public — our visitors. Every time you take a garden wander or book a garden tour,  it helps keep Cruden Farm alive for everyone to enjoy.

Garden Wander

Cruden Farm is open throughout the year from Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays), 10 am–4 pm, and once a month on a Sunday. Visitors are welcome to meander around the magnificent property and enjoy the fruits of Dame Elisabeth’s 80 years of horticultural endeavour.
