Views
Many of the coastal views today were part of Humphry Repton’s design for the park, created in 1812.
Flowering Plants
Rhododendron species including macabeanum, calophytum, and lutescens bring early spring colour to the wild garden. Our pierises, believed to be among the largest in the country, are covered in white bell-like flowers - follow the hum of the bees to locate them. In April, patches of bluebells can be seen in many places brighting up all our marked trails around the park. The rhododendrons build to a colourful peak in May-June when species such as blue tit., davidsonianum, doncaster, arboretum and niveum provide plenty of colour alongside red and yellow azaleas.
