Gardens and Parks

Cheshire's gardens are renowned...

...few other areas of the country can boast the range and number of glorious gardens that can be found in this famously green-fingered county. In fact more than one in eight of all garden visits in Britain take place in Cheshire. Cheshire’s Peak District is home to six of Cheshire's top ten gardens of Distinction making this the obvious destination for garden lovers.

Visit the magnificent arboretum at Jodrell Bank Science Centre, the Japanese Gardens at Tatton Park and the fragrant Orangery at Lyme Hall. Walk around the spectacular herbaceous borders of Arley Hall and Gardens, the walled garden and azalea walks at Hare Hill and the delightful knot garden at Little Moreton Hall. Marvel at over 50 varieites of snowdrops at Rode Hall & Gardens.

Discover the historic herbs and vegetables at the Apprentice House Garden, grown originally to feed and treat the child millworkers who were housed there to work at Quarry Bank Mill.

Come and visit beautiful Congleton Park placed 11th in the top 20 free attractions in the North West in a survey conducted by Visit Britain.
Whatever time of year you choose to visit Cheshire’s Peak District, you will be able to enjoy luscious gardens at their best.
