Cotswold Garden Breaks

The Cotswolds are home to some of the finest English gardens ever created and spring is the perfect time to witness their beauty first hand.

As memories of the long cold winter melt away, garden visits are a wonderfully optimistic way to mark VisitEngland’s Year of the Garden.  As spring bulbs and blossom replace the snowdrops of late winter, Cotswold gardens offer world-class design and planting in a traditional and intimate country setting.

There are a whole host of other beautiful gardens in the Cotswolds, as well as a plethora of seasonal garden events including the National Gardens Scheme (NGS) which allows visitors to enter over hundred private gardens.

The Cotswold garden route will help you to plot out your very own garden route for you to tour on a day trip, short break, or longer holiday.  In order to visit some of the most spectacular gardens in England, you'll want to stay at least for a night or two.  The garden route also provides seasonal information, so you can plan a visit throughout the year.
