Batsford is home to one of the finest botanical collections in the country and is run by the charitable trust, The Batsford Foundation. The Arboretum is planted on a south facing slope which means visitors get to see our magnificent tree and plant collections from an unusual angle, as well as the stunning views of the Evenlode Valley beyond. At 56 acres in size, Batsford is an intimate and romanti

Batsford is also home to a beautiful visitor centre where you'll find the Garden Terrace Café, Gift and Garden Shops and the Plant Centre within the walls of the Victorian kitchen garden.

The first of the David Austin roses are beginning to bloom 🌹

The Plant Centre is starting to fill with colour, and alongside the roses we’ve also got a fresh display of specialist composts and soils for roses, trees and shrubs to help your garden thrive through the season ahead.

One of the standout highlights in the arboretum right now 🌿

Our Head Gardener Matt takes a closer look at some of the beautiful ornimental flowering dogwoods (Cornus) currently putting on a display across the gardens, including Cornus Kousa and the striking Cornus Venus.

With their delicate blooms and layered branches, they’re well worth seeking out on your next visit.

One of our favourite things about Batsford is how much wildlife calls it home.

One of the most meaningful trees at Batsford 🌳

This horse chestnut tree is a seedling from the original tree that stood outside Anne Frank’s attic hiding place in Amsterdam — the very tree she wrote about in her diary as her connection to the outside world.

Although the original tree was lost in 2010, its legacy lives on here at Batsford as a quiet memorial to Anne’s life and story.
