Colesbourne Gardens Snowdrop Weekends

Event ended

See one of Gloucestershire’s best collections of snowdrops at the Colesbourne Gardens Snowdrop Weekends 2012, in the Cotswolds.

See blankets of beautiful snowdrops at the Colesbourne Open Days 2012.

The sight of snowdrops – one of the first flowers to bloom after the cold winter – is a welcome indicator that spring is right around the corner, and Colesbourne Park Gardens in the Cotswolds is renowned as one of the best places in the whole country to see impressive carpets of the glistening white flowers.

As well as getting the chance to see some of Colesbourne Gardens’ 250 varieties of snowdrop during the 2012 open days, visitors will also be able to enjoy the church and waterfall, as well as taking in a walk along the lakeside and woodland paths to see huge banks boasting a variety of winter plants. There will be stalls for plant lovers to peruse, ample parking is available and dogs are welcome on a lead.

Don’t miss this annual natural attraction in Gloucestershire’s great outdoors.
