Highlights
Summer at Doddington
If spring is a season to rest and recharge, summer is an opportunity to get outside and explore! Whether you’re visiting for the day or staying in one of our holiday cottages, Doddington is the perfect place to spend a sunny day.
Our packed summer events programme allows you to experience the Hall in new and exciting ways, with live music, theatre and the annual Sculpture exhibition transforming the grounds.
In the Doddington gardens, we savour the summer months. Compared to the quick bursts of new life in spring, the longer days invite the gardens to slow down and show off. Left to their own devices, they reward us with an incredible display of colour and fragrance. From our impressive rhododendrons to our elegant irises, there is something in flower all summer long.
And it’s not just in the gardens where we encourage you to slow down. Those long, sunny days are the perfect excuse to linger a little longer over lunch or join us for a post-padel pint. Take a seat outside to watch the world go by and soak up that vibrant summer energy.
Prefer to eat later when it’s warm? The Grain Store opens for relaxed dining on Friday and Saturday evenings. Join us for dinner and you can watch the sun go down from the balcony, cocktail in hand – even if you’re local, you’ll feel like you’re on holiday.
