The Hall was completed in 1510, although the garden moat predates the house and is probably of Saxon origin. Lady Tollemache, a Chelsea Gold Medallist, has worked tirelessly to restore the gardens at Helmingham to glory over the last 20 years. Today, the gardens are open to visitors who can relax and unwind in the beautiful rose, knot, herb, wild and kitchen gardens all set in a 400 acre deer park

. Helmingham hosts a number of exciting events each year including The Festival of Classic & Sports Cars, two Plant Heritage Plant Fairs Artisan Markets, Music in the Gardens and the Illuminated Light Trail.

The stunning weather continues into this weekend, which provides the perfect setting for Theatre in the Gardens on Friday evening.

The Three Inch Fools present 'King Arthur and the Holy Fail'

Set in a world of daring quests, gallant knights and glorious chaos, this latest production follows Arthur, an unlikely hero unexpectedly thrust into the adventure of a lifetime after Camelot is shaken by a tragic and rather improbable incident involving a large table of an undisclosed shape.

Faced with impossible odds, blistering cold, scorching fire and a destiny he never asked for, Arthur must decide whether he has what it takes to save the realm.

The performance begins at 7pm, gates open at 6pm.

Bring a picnic, blankets, chairs and enjoy a hilarious evening of theatre surrounded by the beauty of Helmingham.
