Summer attractions

Walk through the conservation area where you'll see Queen Charlotte's Cottage, open weekends and bank holidays.  Visit the Waterlily House where our giant waterlilies begin to bloom. The Rock Garden has a selection of plants among the sandstone crags, the geraniums and irises look particularly good at this time of year, and you'll find a selection of rare and unusual plants in the Davies Alpine House.
