  • RHS Garden Harlow Carr (North Yorkshire) – Tucked on the edge of Harrogate, Harlow Carr blends Yorkshire’s natural rugged charm with meandering streamside paths, a spectacular Alpine House, and a cosy stop at the iconic Bettys Tea Room.

  • Canonteign Falls, Devon – Home to England’s highest man-made waterfall, this hidden gem within Dartmoor National Park is perfect for those seeking dramatic landscapes, peaceful lakes and woodland trails.

Each garden offers a unique experience, from bold seasonal colour to quiet corners perfect for reflection. With flexible gift vouchers and curated packages available for two, these experiences make ideal gifts for nature lovers, couples and anyone seeking a tranquil escape from the everyday.

“At WonderDays, we believe that the joy of gardens shouldn’t be limited to one week in May,” said Bron Jones at WonderDays. “Our experiences offer people the chance to enjoy the colour, creativity and calm of the UK’s most beautiful gardens all year round.”
