Batsford Arboretum

Batsford Arboretum in Moreton-in-Marsh boasts 56 acres of stunning parkland offering one of the finest botanical collections in the country, with around 1,300 different species of trees, shrubs and bamboo waiting to be discovered.

The family-friendly Cotswold attraction is an inspiring place to visit throughout all four seasons. Expect blankets of snowdrops and beautiful Japanese cherry blossom in spring, and impressive displays of autumn colour, with the destination open every day of the year, except for Christmas Day.

The arboretum is run by The Batsford Foundation, a charitable trust which aims to promote conservation and advance public knowledge of gardens, arboreta and historic landscapes.

Visitors can wander the beautiful grounds to discover more about the history of the plant and tree species, with collections covering a wide variety from around the world, with an emphasis on the Far East.

Enjoy lunch or afternoon tea in the Garden Terrace Café followed by a browse in the shop where you’ll find gifts, planting accessories and much more.
