Please see our website for full open garden dates and times before making a visit - as we are only open on set dates throughout the year. Chippenham Park is a private country house. The award-winning RHS Partner Gardens are extensive and beautiful. Open from January for snowdrops through daffodil season and into May/June. There is a cosy, licensed Cafe serving homemade soups, hotdogs and cheese toasties as well as tea and cakes. The paths are mostly gravel and woodchip. Please bring appropriate footwear if concerned. There are large areas of open water; children must be accompanied at all times.
A wonderful walk around their well laid out gardens at daffodil time...Easter bunny hunt for anyone with youngsters. Dogs on leads welcome. A very family friendly day out. Made to feel very welcome. Thank you.
Lively visit, cant wait to come back in another season. Beautiful gardens and statuary.
Excellent. Plenty of walks. Walk as little or much as you want. Beautiful display of snow drops. Absolute carpets of them. Lovely walk by the lake. Lots of statues dotted about. Finished up at the Potting Shed cafe. Very enjoyable hot dog and drink. Plus a rest. Money well spent. It's a partner garden of RHS so of you are a member of them free entry. Otherwise PS7 for an adult.
Very good showing of various late winter plants. LOADS of snowdrops. Best quantities I have seen to date anywhere. Various small and medium size sculptures scattered around the property. My photos show but a few. Set aside 3 hours plus if you are planning to do these gardens justice. Not a good place for small children (unless they are into gardens). Free off road parking. Toilet facilities. Wheelchair access. Tea/coffee shop. If this review is helpful please press like.
We went with my disabled wheelchair bound mum to see the snowdrops beginning February 2022. The snowdrops and aconite are beautiful and so so many of them. The gardens are lovely with lots of sculptures and as a family we enjoyed our 3 hour visit. The cafe serves simple but good food. On the day we went they were serving 2 different soups (one vegan and one veggie with a nice wholegrain roll - see photos) and 2 other hot small meals. All in recyclable containers. Also about 5 different yummy cakes and scones, jam and cream (a family member has an allergy and on the day we went all cakes were a 'main contain' for nuts). Just a note if you use a wheelchair, it's not that easy to access and you may need to ask to park in the disabled parking spaces (on grass) as they are not waymarked. There is also an alternative route into the main garden which avoids stepping stones and a high metal step, if you ask. Also you can avoid the steep bridge by using Adrian's walk. The paths are mostly gravel, grass or woodchip, see photos. Clean and nice disabled toilet up a slight lip and ramp.
Beautiful spring garden. Delightful displays of daffodils, hellebores & cherry blossom. Wide variety of garden sculptures - some quirky & humorous! Gardeners friendly, knowledgeable & informative. Cafe strongly recommended: excellent choice of soup with a vegan option (tomato & basil or Indonesian chickpea & tomato) & fantastic homemade cakes (we chose a mixed citrus cake and carrot cake). Something of a hidden gem.
