Batsford Arboretum

A wonderful place for kids to let off steam and enjoy the outdoors. Follow the streams, dodge the waterfall and find Foo Dog and the Big Buddha hidden in our arboretum and wild garden.

Batsford Arboretum is a wild garden with a unique collection of trees and plants, and it’s heaving with wildlife! Check out the nesting boxes including those for owls, search for bugs and identify trees from their beautiful leaves.

Silver winner of the Cotswold Tourism Awards Large Visitor Attraction of the Year 2014 and home to the country's largest private collection of trees and shrubs.

We want all our visitors to leave Batsford feeling relaxed, refreshed and reinvigorated by its natural beauty.  We’re open every day of the year except Christmas Day and we only charge for entry to the Arboretum itself.  Entry to the Café, Garden and Gift Shops and Plant Centre is absolutely free, so even if you don’t have time to visit our beautiful tree collection, you can still enjoy the atmosphere and shopping at Batsford.
