A truly amazing oasis of peace and beauty in the heart of Chelsea. As you step out from the foyer into the historic gardens, the air changes to fresh and fragrant. The warm micro climate allows lots of exotic and rare plants to grow. If that wasn't enough there is a beautiful array of glasshouses with more choice plants.
5 MILLION STARS!!! This may be my favorite place from my visit to London. I almost didn’t end up going here but OH BOY I’m so glad that I did!!nThe smell is so good. There is birdsong EVERYWHERE. The paths are so well kept and the hedges so well-trimmed! They were even having an insect identification class when I was there! It was so cool.nThere were so many arches and paths to explore, I could’ve stayed all day!!nThe one thing I would’ve loved to see more of was stuff in the gift shop! I’d hoped there would be some sort of t shirt or tote bag but there was not … some really nice seed packets though! And a couple super cute houseplants as well as gardening tools!nIf you are in the area or even if, like me, you aren’t PLEASE go check it out!! You will not regret it!!
Had no idea this was such a beautiful place in Royal Hospital Road, just off Chelsea Embankment. The 170 bus goes there from Victoria Station. Entrance is £15 but there are discounts for certain groups. It's a four acre site with cultivated gardens. Tours available and Pamela was extremely knowledgeable on the features of the site. Enjoyed the tour, went to the cafe then had another look around on our own. It's a 10 - 15 min walk from Carlyle's House so possible to visit both places in a day. Highly recommend.
This is an enchanting garden, a real gem tucked away from the busy roads and s stones throw away from the river. We were there in late July and it was in full summer bloom. We loved the tropical greenhouse, geranium greenhouse, wild meadow along the pond and weaving between the many beds of vibrant flowers. A oasis of calm, clearly nurtured and tendered to by those lucky enough to work there!
A lovely garden with greenhouses, lots of information about growing plants, a lovely shop, toilets, wildlife trees and lots of history. It is well worth the visit and has plants from all over the world.
