Go to Batsford Arboretum
Having last visited this place as a horticultural student in the mid 70's, it is considerably bigger and better than I remember.
During my recent visit Magnolias and Cherries were in fine form, and the new foliage of the Japanese Acers bursting forth. A must to revisit in the summer and Autumn and maybe a likely contender in due course with Westonbirt.
There is a wealth of fascinating trees to discover, all in a very lovely and elegant setting.
The new development in the walled garden looks most exciting !
