Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens

Probably one of the best gardens of its type in the world. Winner of silver medal at Chelsea and silver gilt at Hampton Court Show. Magnificent Victorian walled garden set in 20 acres of woodland valley. The unique micro climate enables rare and exotic species from all over the world to thrive here. Children's adventure play area. Nature trail. Sunken gardens with golden pheasants. Superb colonial style teahouse with veranda overlooking the sunken garden. Plant centre selling high quality plants, charming gift shop and free parking, outstanding views of the newly designated World Heritage Coast from the top of the Sir Simon Hornby Magnolia Walk. Winner of the HHA/Christie's Garden of the Year Award 2012.
