2-for-1 Gardens – Winter wonders

Our 2-for-1 Gardens are filled with interest all year round, even in winter. Join us this month and use your 2-for-1 Gardens entry card to experience the stillness and beauty of deep winter.

Sheffield Park, in East Sussex, is the perfect spot for a walk on a crisp January day. Designed by Capability Brown, the garden comprises four large lakes and 300 acres of Sussex Countryside – so you won’t run out of things to see. The subdued winter palette and bare branches makes the wildlife easy to spot. Look out for bright flashes of kingfishers and other wildlife.  Enjoy silver winter light being reflected in the mirror lakes and listen out for the roar and babble of the garden’s waterfalls and cascades.

At Anglesey Abbey, Cambridgeshire, the infamous Winter Walk is awash with planting inspiration, from sculptural forms to the coloured cornus that glow in the low winter sun. At Anglesey Abbey, they plant for scent, texture and winter colour. Look out for the feathery seedheads of ornamental grasses and red bark of the Tibetan cherry tree. The garden finishes with a theatrical series of ghostly white silver birch trees.
