Gardens and parks in and around Buckinghamshire

Spring leaves are unfurling and blossom and bulbs are bursting into colour in our Buckinghamshire gardens. There's the formal parterre at Hughenden, the sweeping landscapes of Stowe with a new snakeshead fritillary meadow and the bright daffodils and crocuses of Waddesdon and Cliveden to enjoy.

Walking trail

Stowe

As spring develops at Stowe, walk to find pockets of daffodils covering the hills, Wood and Blue anemones on the rocky banks, Turks head tulips, Crocuses, Snake's head and imperial fritillaries and Aconites to name a few, sitting in the backdrop of Grecian style temples.

Waddesdon Manor

Washes of colour fill the garden at this time of year, with the parterre predominantly blue and purple. In late May our gardeners begin the summer bedding changeover so expect stunning displays.

Cliveden

Every corner of the estate will be brimming with life this spring. The camellias bloom in early spring in the water garden, followed by flowering cherries and magnolias. There's a dramatic display in the Long Garden, where you'll find a fresh display of 11,000 Bellis Bellissima in the four central beds. On the parterre, there are 21,000 bedding plants flanked on the banks by daffodils.
