Golden Acre Park

Over recent years the gardens have seen much transformation.

Existing features have been upgraded, beds and borders re-organised and new features added. Features include Limestone and Sandstone Rock Gardens, Heather, Bog and Late Season borders and Courtyard.

The Display House has recently been transformed into a planted rocky outcrop and a scree bed depicting a dry temperature region typical of the Mediterranean region.

In the heart of the park is the Demonstration Garden. This garden follows the horticultural trends and fashions and provides visitors with inspiration and ideas for their own gardens. Themes range from Tropical, Cottage Formal styles to a Pottage and Container Garden. The Chrysanthemum and Dahlia Societies also exhibit within the garden. Nothing is permanent in here, every year they try to add something new.

If you've had fun on your family day out to Golden Acre Park, tell us about it your visit, so other people will know it's a great place to go as well.
