Visit a wild botanical garden in the heart of Sussex with an entry ticket to Wakehurst in Haywards Heath. Traverse woodland landscapes inspired by the eastern Himalayas, visit the Mansion Gardens, and much more.
Spend the day exploring and discover the garden's seasonal delights. The Winter Garden is a horticultural spectacle, full of sensory delight and the perfect place to lift the spirits on a cold winter’s day.
Alongside the meadow, the Rock Walk offers a fantastic hiking experience. Wander along a path filled with looming rock outcrops, gnarled yew tree roots, and shafts of light breaking through the deep shade.
If you're visiting with your little ones, make sure to stop by the Children's Walled Garden open during the summer months. Watch as your kids play in the mud kitchen or help them pot up their very own seed to take home in the potting shed.
Wakehurst is also home to the Millennium Seed Bank. Learn about the underground collection of over 2.4 billion seeds from around the world and enter the glass atrium to watch scientists at work, hearing about their mission to protect wild plant biodiversity.
Whatever the time of year, Wakehurst offers visitors a wealth of interesting landscapes to explore. And if you get a little hungry during your visit, a garden café provides the perfect spot to enjoy a tasty treat (cost not included).
