Britain's What's On Event Guide
Winkworth Arboretum
Heritage Open Day: An arboretum with twisting paths leading to secret glades and hidden views. The dramatic hillside location provides the perfect canvas for a collection of plants and trees that paint a picture. Immerse yourself in texture, colour and fragrance. Bursts of colour excite the senses at every turn and changes take place every day of the season. Perfect for a family picnic in the summer or a stroll through the crisp leaves in autumn when the foliage is ablaze. In spring, the rich and stark winter landscape gives way to brilliant carpets of old English bluebells with impressive displays of azaleas and magnolias. You could say that the views are best seen from the boathouse where the colour is reflected in the giant lake and wildlife can be spotted.
