Westwood lake in autumn

About

As the days grow shorter and a crisp chill embraces the air, there's no mistaking it: autumn is here.
Wakehurst's landscapes are in the midst of a transformation, exchanging the lush greens of summer for a vibrant tapestry of reds, oranges, and yellows. With endless strolls, fungi finding, events, and more, we hope you join us in one of our favourite seasons, and we have a feeling it might just become one of your favourites too.

Autumn colour hotspots:
-Westwood Lake
-Horsebridge Wood
-Westwood Valley
-Bethlehem Wood
-Mansion Pond
-Wild Wood

Cosy up in the warmth of our Stables kitchen or Seeds café after your seasonal stroll, or perhaps explore our Visitor Centre Shop – after all, it's never too early to start your Christmas shopping… right?!
With spaces for for couples, families, furry friends, or even for those seeking a moment of solitude, come and revel in the autumn at Wakehurst.

Children 16 and under and members can visit for FREE!
