Set amongst the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside, this 60 acre, private woodland garden offers a huge variety of plants ranging from trees and shrubs, to a wide selection of bulbs, including a substantial collection of lilies, to roses and climbers.
The garden's unlikely band of acid soil, in this predominantly alkaline area, provides the opportunity to cultivate plants such as Rhododendrons, Camellias and Magnolias, which would not ordinarily thrive in this location.
Evenley Wood is also home to huge array of wildlife. Over the past 15 years, 80 species of birds have been spotted in and over the wood. Extensive surveys of moths, butterflies, mosses and liverworts have also been carried out, the details of which can be seen on the garden's website.
With an extensive network of paths leaving the opportunity for hours of exploration, you can also take a break from your walk and enjoy refreshments in the woodland. They also welcome dogs, but ask that they be kept on leads. Toilet facilities are available.
