About Cambridge University Botanic Garden

Cambridge University Botanic Garden is home to 8,000 species of trees and plants.

The are many types of gardens including British Wild plants, wild meadow, dry meadow, bog garden, fen display, woodland, grass maze, and a rock garden, streams, rose garden and a New Zealand planted terrace garden – phew!!

And do check out the Cory Lawn which is a contemporary take on planting in an historic landscape.

So I think you will have plenty to look at and learn about! Not forgetting learning about the wildlife that inhabit and visit the gardens.

Only assistance dogs with a handler welcome please.

Reviews: Why you should go to the Cambridge University Botanic Garden

Don’t take our word for how great these gardens are. Here is what visitors to the Cambridge University Botanic Garden had to say!

” What a beautiful oasis! The autumn garden was glorious! The greenhouses were so interesting. The signage was engaging (and we didn’t even have children with us)”

” The gardens are full of interesting and unusual plants, including some really inspiring ideas for low maintenance, low water or highly scented plants (and a surprisingly colourful winter garden).

The size and scale of the gardens is ideal for a day trip, although do be aware the cafe is typically very busy. Very enjoyable and well-run public gardens and plenty for the kids too.”
