Clarence House Gardens

The gardens of Clarence House, the official home of the Prince of Wales and his family, are opening publicly this summer. Clarence House used to be the London home of Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother; and it is situated on the Mall, beside St James's Palace.

Visitors will be able to stroll among the neatly kept lawns of the rose garden and Prince Charles’s very own vegetable patch during a 12-day Garden Party to take place this summer.

Members of the public will also be free to meander in the neighbouring grounds of Lancaster House and Marlborough House during the event which runs from September 8 – 19, 2010.

Admission to the gardens will take place between 10am and 4pm with them staying open until 6pm.

Tickets are already on sale from www.startuk.org or by calling 0844 248 5052. They are priced £15 for adults and £7.50 for children.
