Beth Chatto Gardens are world famous gardens, open all year round, but today is specifically for the NGS.
Over the past 50 years, the 7 acres of gardens have been transformed by Beth Chatto and her late husband Andrew into diverse and beautifully landscaped gardens including several ponds with a water garden for damp-loving plants. Another area of gravel and sand features plants adapted to drought: this 3/4 acre plot is not irrigated. A new Reservoir Garden, an area of peace and tranquility, was opened in 2017.
There is also a large plant nursery, audio trail, tree trail, gift shop and a large Tearoom.
