Leicester’s EcoHouse was the first environmental show home to be opened in the United Kingdom. The House demonstrates how people can live in a more sustainable way, saving money in the process. Entrance is free to the House, although we welcome donations.
The garden is fully organic garden demonstrates how to garden for wildlife and food.
The house, café and garden are open to the public seven days per week to both look around and seek advice. Guided tours are offered and the training room may also be hired for events and meetings.
