Spring Gardens of the North West
Summary
Join us in the north west of England as the winter frosts thaw and gardens burst to life with kaleidoscopes of colour on this tour of some of the north west’s best spring gardens. We visit Tatton Park, whose gardens have developed over 200 years yet retain much of their Edwardian character, and RHS Bridgewater, a once-in-a-generation project where the Royal Horticultural Society has taken inspiration from the heritage of the site and transformed it into a world-class garden based on an overall design by leading landscape architect Tom Stuart-Smith.
The Lovell Quinta Arboretum, spread over 28 acres and home to 2,500 different species of plants which include snowdrops, crocus and daffodils that burst into bloom in the spring is also on our agenda. Dunham Massey is home to one of Britain’s finest winter gardens. Our visit here allows us to witness the transformation into a delightful spring garden that’s filled with scintillating scents and splashes of colour, a real treat for the senses. Finally, we also visit some of the region’s best private gardens that have year-round interest.
