Thenford Arboretum & Garden Open Days 2026

We look forward to welcoming you to Thenford Arboretum.

The arboretum is spread out over 70 acres, featuring a collection of more than 3000 different trees and shrubs. Extensive herbaceous borders, water gardens, an alpine trough garden, a sculpture garden, a rose garden and a rill can also be enjoyed together with a snowdrop collection featuring over 900 varieties.

The medieval fish ponds, their interconnecting canal and the existing lake have been restored and two new ones have been added.
