Bodnant Garden
Tal-y-Cafn
Bodnant Garden is one of the most beautiful gardens in the UK, spanning some 80 acres and is situated above the River Conwy on ground sloping towards the west and looking across the valley towards the Snowdonia range....
The Garden has two parts. The upper section consists of informal lawns and herbaceous borders, magnificent Italiante Terraces featuring buttressed walls and brick paths, curved steps and pergolas, the Pin Mill and Lily Ponds.
The lower section, known as the "Dell" is formed by the valley of the River Hiraethlyn and contains the Pinetum and Wild Garden.
Gorgeous Rhododendrons and Azaleas from mid April to late May, the stunning Laburnum Arch is a splendid sight from around the third week of May until early June. Throughout the summer months the Garden looks spectacular with displays of roses, water lilies, clematis, eucryphia, hydrangeas and glorious herbaceous borders. This is followed by amazing autumn colours and berries in October. Read More
