Our Venue is one of the most spectacular woodland gardens in England. In 2019,
Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens opened its doors after a closure of 10 years.
This magnificent Grade 1 listed garden was nearly lost forever and has been the subject
of the largest garden restoration in England in recent times.
What to see:
• Numerous walks to explore throughout the 240-acres of Grade I Listed Gardens, parkland, lawns and forest
areas, with an abundance of fascinating fauna as well as flora.
• Rare colony of wallabies introduced in 1889, as well as several species of deer.
• Rock Garden provides visitors of all ages with an unforgettable experience as the paths loop through the stunning
rock formations.
• Dolls’ House Museum with an extensive collection depicting the Edwardian estate and neighbouring villages at
1:12 scale, with landscapes and characters acting out day-to-day activities.
• A wide choice of refreshment outlets from Cafes and 1star Michelin restaurant through to takeaways including
