Batsford Arboretum
Welcome to one of the most extraordinary botanical collections in the world. Run by the Batsford Foundation, an incredible charity trust, it is ever so atmospheric and makes a fantastic romantic destination. Based on 56 acres, it feels beautifully intimate and has some incredible views over the Evenlode Valley. Admire the plant collection from a unique angle, as this Arboretum has been planted on a South facing slope. There is also a great visitor centre on site, a Garden Terrace Café, a superb Plant Centre and a shop.
Review
The Batsford Arboretum is situated right next to one of our other Top 100 Attractions the Cotswold Falconry Centre, which really lends itself well to it's surroundings. I have visited a number of Arboretums but this one really does stick out in my mind which is another one of the many reasons why the arboretum is one of our Top 100 Attractions. I mention the falconry centre because if you visit both, you are looking at a full day out. That's even before I tell you about the great cafe style restaurant that is situated within the garden centre here at Batsford Arboretum. With so much too see and experience here, it is truly a gardeners heaven, but you don't have to be a green fingered enthusiast to appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes into making this place a Top 100 Attraction. You will not be disappointed!
