Pashley Manor Gardens

Gardens

Pashley is renowned for its seasonal showcases of tulips, roses and dahlias. The annual Tulip Festival features 35,000 tulips. During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. In late summer, Dahlia Days transform the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.

The idyllic scene is completed by a picturesque café and terrace serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes, plus sculpture and art exhibitions and a gift shop with plant sales. The recipe for a wonderful morning is complete.
