A beautiful oasis outside of London

Wisley Garden
London is a vibrant City. Whilst I love its busyness sometimes working and living in the same space can become too much. 

The Royal Horticulture Societies Wisley Garden less than an hour outside of London, offers the perfect setting to spread your wings. 

Over 240 acres of beautiful and relaxing gardens set in the English Surrey countryside, Wisley is the perfect place to blow away the cobwebs.

The large glasshouse the same size as ten tennis courts offers a wonderful oasis of Orchids, tropical and desert plants.

One of the highlights for me was walking through the meadows of Allium Camassia, breathtakingly beautiful at this time of year.

And walking around the lake, if you keep your eyes pealed you might even spot a few wonderful pheasants secretly hiding in the undergrowth.

Wisley offers the perfect place to let the little ones loose to burn off some energy. Noah loves roaming around inspecting the plants, a future David Bellamy or Monty Don in the making.

If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of London, then dust off your picnic basket and head down to Wisley Gardens for a great day out.

  5. I love visiting botanical gardens, especially when there's a big greenhouse full of exotic, exciting plants :) I discovered that pineapples grow on the ground when visiting one! xxx
