A wonderful oasis of horticultural wonder.nI visited the botanical gardens last weekend and l loved it, simply can't wait to come back soon.nThe glass houses are full of rare, tropical plants: Cacti, palm trees, orchids, shrubs with water features dotted around and a wonderfully hidden basin with koi fish in the very middle, there are benches inside to sit and take it all in at a slower pace if one wants to.nThe outdoor garden doesn't disappoint either and even on a fresh February day it's a marvelous park full of different gardens , pathways and some of the most majestic trees one can behold, one of which is an absolute beast of a Lebanese cedar that simply took my breath away.nThis beautiful botanical garden can be enjoyed by anyone from single explorers to multi generational families with small children.nThe facilities on site are spotless and extremely well taken care of plus it has a beautiful gift shop with high quality goods- a great place to pick a gift for someone special.nWholeheartedly recommend this place.
A wonderful visit today, interactive trail for children which we enjoyed doing. Also took part in a half term activity for children. It was brilliant. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again!
Visited to see the Christmas lights show.. Fun laser displays.. Very interesting displays indeed. Lots of spots to take photos. Kids will love it. They have also got a lot of small kiosks selling winter specialties like mulled wine, hot chocolate, waffles etc. Enjoyed it.
The Botanical Gardens are always lovely any time of year. They are great value for money and very family friendly as they always have free activities for children and there is no charge for them to enter. Lots of lovely plants and different areas from the greenhouses to winter gardens.nOnly negative points...the food is very expensive and wasn't particularly good a very bland salad today...apparently it was supposed to have raisins in...I got one! At £6 a bowl I expected flavour and *gasp* a dressing. The other is parking. Not the gardens fault, but there isn't any. This is particularly difficult for disabled people. You can park for 3 hours but that's very little time to visit given the extra time and effort it takes with a disability. There are NO disabled spaces and the pavement is is dangerous for either a mobility scooter or walking aid users. The Council needs to revaluate this! Also wish they'd keep the shop open till 5pm so you can buy stuff on the way out! They are missing a trick there.
The Cambridge Botanic Garden is absolutely amazing—an easy 10/10 if Google would let me. It’s genuinely one of the best places I’ve visited, and I’d rank it right up there with the Fitzwilliam Museum. If I were to return to Cambridge, this would be one of my top stops, whether going alone or with a child.nnThe layout is stunning, the atmosphere is calm and inviting, and you can clearly see how carefully and lovingly the whole place is maintained. Walking through it gave me a vibe similar to gardens in Marrakech, like the Jardin Majorelle beautiful, vibrant, and full of character.nnI’m extremely happy I got the chance to visit, and I’d recommend it to absolutely anyone. It’s a true hidden gem in the UK and one of my most memorable experiences in Cambridge.
