An Introduction to Dyffryn Gardens
Join one of our knowledgeable volunteers for a short introductory talk about Dyffryn Gardens.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Discover more about the history, design and seasonal highlights of the gardens.
An Introduction to Dyffryn Gardens takes place outdoors on the South Front Terrace. These relaxed 15 minute talks offer a glimpse into the past, including stories about the Cory family, the development of the gardens and its seasonal features such as wisteria and the rose garden.
Visitors are welcome to stay afterwards to ask questions and chat with volunteers.
Talks take place every Wednesday at 12pm, 1pm and 2pm, but this event is volunteer dependent - so it's worth checking with our Welcome Team on the day if the talks are going ahead.
