After what has seemed like one of the wettest, light-deprived winters on record, the next White Door Brocante at West Green House gardens on Thursday 23rd April 2026 in North Hampshire promises once again to weave its Spring magic. I am looking forward to seeing a fresh crop of expertly curated vintage and antiques against the backdrop of an English manor house garden.

West Green House gardens on BBC TV’s Gardeners’ World

After last year’s success when the weather provided a timely confetti of blossom and spring bulbs, 24 White Door Brocante stallholders are returning to the charm of the wisteria-clad greenhouse and orchard at West Green House gardens.

Perhaps you saw the gardens featured in episode 1 of BBC Gardeners’ World 2025 Winter Special series?

Antiques hunters

At last year’s White Door Brocante visitors enjoyed a day out with friends and family to West Green House gardens and were not only buying for interior design clients and their own homes but also for gifts and wedding presents too.

Light lunches, refreshments and cakes are available from 11 am to 4 pm in the Courtyard cafe at West Green House gardens. In addition for 2026, there is going to be a coffee van situated next to White Door Brocante stalls in the orchard.
