Compton Acres Gardens, Poole

Wednesday 9th April

The coach will leave Bristol City Centre at 9.00am  or

you can board the coach earlier at your local pick up point

Constructed in 1920, today Compton Acres is recognised as one of the most important ornamental gardens in England.

The 10 acre ornamental garden was created on an area of Dorset heathland. The garden was started in 1920 when Thomas Simpson purchased the site including the
mansion and set about creating a series of themed gardens to
reflect his overseas travels, with the help of
Mr Middleton, the Head Gardener.

The garden was opened to the public just prior to World War II and again after the war.
Mr Simpson sold the site to a London architect, J. Stanley Beard in 1950,
who restored the garden after the war and
re-opened them to the public in 1953.

Since 2003 the gardens have undergone a great deal of development; including the construction of the Compton Acres Gift Shop, Café and Tearooms, Plant Centre,
 The Ark gift shop and the award-winning Italian Villa.

The gardens themselves have been refurbished to a high standard of horticulture including planting many thousand new plants to add interest to all groups of visitors.

The garden has 5 main themed gardens joined by a series of links, including a sub-tropical area, southern Hemisphere collection and a hosta walk adding more
variety to the planting styles in the garden.

We'll return home to Bristol, arriving back in the City Centre around 7.30pm
