The garden was created by the late Sir Simon Sainsbury, great-grandson of the founder of the supermarket chain and his partner Stewart Grimshaw. 

The designers were Lanning Roper and later Julian and Isabel Bannerman.

Woolbeding House remains privately inhabited and is consequently not open to the public.

We’re still very much a private garden and we welcome visitors exclusively on Thursdays and Fridays (between 5 April - 28 Sept 2018). All visits must be pre-booked so we can ensure you'll experience the garden just as it's meant to be. As we're also without a visitor car park, our complimentary park and ride scheme is on hand to take you from nearby Midhurst and drop you directly outside Woolbeding Gardens.
