Gardens and Parks

Gardens

Cheshire is home to several spectacular gardens and magnificent stately homes. Visiting at least one of these during your stay in the region is a must!

Glowing with reds, russets, ambers and rich golds, the autumn colour palette makes Cheshire’s gardens even more rewarding to visit.

To help you fall in love this autumn a selection of Cheshire’s gardens are offering 2 for 1 entry  from 8th October to 30th November and for the little ones download our free children’s activity book for fun fall goings on!

Parks

From manicured formal parks and children's play areas, to rugged country parks and tranquil nature reserves, Cheshire has an outdoor space for everyone.

Spot rare birds in Brereton Heath Nature reserve or roam amongst the heather at Tegg's Nose Country Park. Take a gentle stroll around Poynton Park or cycle along the traffic-free Middlewood Way.
