WSNTA – Day Trips Event
bowood house, gardens and woodland walk - Wed 24 April 2024
Discover the rich and fascinating history of Bowood House and the Lansdowne family, set within 100 acres of beautifully landscaped ‘Capability Brown’ Parkland. Surrounding the magnificent Georgian House is the Italian-inspired Terrace Garden and the herbaceous border, all radiating colour. There is also the Arboretum, Cascades and Hermits Caves and the Doric Temple to explore. The Treehouse café has a range of sandwiches/paninis, wraps etc., or the Stables Pantry offers a seasonal hot and cold buffet lunch, cream teas and refreshments. This is a cash-free site. Picnics are permitted anywhere in the grounds, except the terraces by the house. Gravel paths are unsuitable for wheelchairs/walkers. We will also be visiting the Woodland walk – a separate attraction, only open for 6 weeks a year during the flowering season. Covering over 30 acres, this garden is an oasis of bluebells, azaleas, magnolias and rhododendrons.
