Bodnant Garden

Beautiful National Trust Garden in North Wales

Bodnant Garden is one of the most beautiful gardens in the UK, spanning some 80 acres and is situated above the River Conwy on ground sloping towards the west and looking across the valley towards the Snowdonia range....

The Garden has two parts. The upper section consists of informal lawns and herbaceous borders, magnificent Italiante Terraces featuring buttressed walls and brick paths, curved steps and pergolas, the Pin Mill and Lily Ponds.

The lower section, known as the "Dell" is formed by the valley of the River Hiraethlyn and contains the Pinetum and Wild Garden.

Gorgeous Rhododendrons and Azaleas from mid April to late May, the stunning Laburnum Arch is a splendid sight from around the third week of May until early June. Throughout the summer months the Garden looks spectacular with displays of roses, water lilies, clematis, eucryphia, hydrangeas and glorious herbaceous borders. This is followed by amazing autumn colours and berries in October.

An endeavour has been made at Bodnant Garden to grow a wide range of interesting and beautiful plants from all over the world, particularly China, North America, Europe and Japan that are suited to the Welsh climate and soil. As well as this, care has been taken to place the plants in such a way that they enhance each other and contribute to the general beauty of the Garden throughout the seasons.

The Garden will interest amateur and professional gardeners, artists, photographers and families alike.

Take a tour around our site and enjoy the delights Bodnant Garden has to offer.

We are open every day from 8th March to 2nd November 2008.

Members of the National Trust and fellows of the Royal Horticultural Society are admitted free on presentation of a valid membership card.

The Garden is managed for the National Trust by the Hon. Michael McLaren, Q.C.
