We love it when we uncover somewhere that’s been right under our nose but we’ve somehow missed. This Kemptown slice of heaven in garden form is exactly that.
Run by the Antony Dale Trust (Dale founded Brighton’s Regency Society), the beautifully planted walled garden holds temporary exhibitions. This year, they’re hosting a new exhibition of sculptures by Sussex artists, including a gorgeous piece by Julian Wild.
Brighton caterers Table are also in situ to cater for foodie needs, serving up supremely tasty sweet and savoury homemade treats. Perfect for enjoying in this little dog-friendly oasis of calm, a welcome world away from the frenzy of nearby Eastern Road.
We’d highly recommend their indulgent sticky toffee cake and wild garlic and Cheddar scones (we always buy more to take home) to savour from one of the tables dotted around the garden. Positively idyllic.
Open from Saturday 13th April and every Saturday, Sunday and bank holiday until 2nd June, then every Sunday until late September from 15th June; 11am – 5pm; free
Bristol Gardens, Kemp Town, Brighton BN2 5JE (past Sussex Square but before Lidl if you’re coming from town, the entrance is at the corner of Bristol Place and Bristol Gardens)
