The beautiful 60 acre Evenley Wood Garden will be ours to wander and enjoy & a new place for BN to visit. The setting is amazing, listen to the birds and the sound of nature in a perfect natural environment. Bring a picnic and find a bench throughout the wood or use the log cabin. There’s plenty of space for parking and all facilities that are needed. Easy to find and ideally located just 10 minutes from the M40, junction 10. Take a look at their website. www.evenleywoodgarden.co.uk
Now bookable via the BN Shop
Join British Natisum on our first evening visit to Evenley Wood Garden, in Northamptonshire.
Set amongst the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside, this 60-acre privately owned woodland garden contains a large and notable collection of plants; ranging from unusual trees and shrubs to a wide selection of lilies and other bulbs.
Carpets of named snowdrops in February run into wonderful spring bulbs and the garden’s 800m long Scilla ‘stream’, as the garden jumps into life. Some 100 magnolias follow and are later joined by the first flush of new leaves, rhododendrons and azaleas. In the summer, over 300 roses and 150 lilies emerge, including Lilium ‘Evenley Jane’, which was developed and propagated on site. As the season slows down, a wonderful display of autumn colours can be seen in the leaf, bark, seeds and berries of the garden’s plant collection, ranging from beautiful rustic oranges and fiery reds to greens, gold and brown. Collections of particular note in the garden include oak, pear, apple, maple and what is possibly the largest collection of euonymus in Europe. These sit alongside hardy bulb collections including lilies, spanning all hybrid types, scillas and snowdrops.
Evenley’s pathways are grass or woodland floo, and though generally negotiable with a motorized mobility scooter, problems may occur for wheelchair users (particularly in wet conditions). Wheelchair accessible toilets are avaible.
There will be no café available, as we are a private visit, picnics are encouraged, though please take your rubbish home with you.
