welcome to gardens north wales

natural and dramatic

North Wales is full of gardens. So many, in fact, you’d be forgiven for wondering where one ends and the next one starts. Things grow bigger and better in our great outdoors, too. It’s our climate that does it. Being so close to the sea, and all that rain. Which could explain why there are 18 record-breaking trees at Bodnant Garden. And why Dibleys nursery has picked up 18 gold awards at the Chelsea Flower Show. And you won’t be surprised that Portmeirion has plants usually found in the Brazilian rainforest growing happily outdoors. And that Medwyn Williams’ vegetables have won him ten gold medals at Chelsea. Or that Erddig’s crop of apples is so big they have to throw a festival in its honour.

And if horticulture and holidays are a few of your favourite things, you’ll be pleased to hear we’ve come up with a unique collection of garden breaks. Which include visits to all our best bits. Well, you wouldn’t want to miss anything, would you?
