About
Scarecrow Trail & Model Railway!
The East Leake Open Gardens will celebrate its 5th annual opening in 2025.
With 20 gardens to view there is a lot of ground to cover so they very kindly lay on a free bus service between 10:30 to 16:30. If you telephone 07843 010638 and let them know where you are they will pick you up. Such a good idea.
For the children there is a scarecrow trail, theme yet to be confirmed. And a model railway! (not just for the kids!)
The gardens are nice mix of cottage style, fruit trees, veg beds, chickens, wildlife gardens, ponds, a labyrinth and a swimming pool.
“ … An enjoyable day for all following a scarecrow trail …”
