Beautiful arboretum, have been here throughout all the different seasons and it is always a joy to walk around the gardens;it’s so beautiful! My kids like the small playground and the fairy garden. There is also a nice cafe

Visited on Bank Holiday Monday 4th May. There's plenty of free parking, and not too expensive to enter the grounds. The gardens are beautiful and the grounds are large with plenty of benches dotted around, there's a children's playground with picnic benches, a maze and a cafe with toilets. Unfortunately the reason why this rating is so low is that we ended up having to leave early due to the cafe's Internet going down so they were unable to take any food/drinks orders or any new admissions coming in because the card machine had gone down and they don't except cash which I find ridiculous as so many people got turned away which for a bank holiday isn't good business in my eyes, one women said she drove from Worcester to get there to get turned away. Due to having a child and a person with diabetes in our group who needed to eat, we ended up leaving with only having spent an hour there which was very disappointing. If you're going take your own food!

What a delight. The arboretum gave a whole new meaning to forest bathing over 300 varieties of trees, all named. There were information boards and a Easter trail for younger children. The views across the River Severn were beautiful. Even though it was Easter it wasn't too busy and you could find a peaceful corner to enjoy the space We came by train from Brignorth to Arley and in 15 mins were walking into the Arboretum. Arley village is from a bygone time too Arboretum cafe serves a good selection of food including Vegetarian options. Highly recommend a visit.

Visited this wonderful place on a Sunday Oct day looking for somewhere to take our 2 yr old granddaughter. What a gem, it has a really nice cafe at the entrance with plenty of outdoor seating too (some covered), dogs very welcome but have to be on leads at all times. £8 per adult although I had a BBC gardners word 2-1 membership. Beautiful grounds. A very nice Italian garden area. Service in the cafe was superb. Plenty of easy parking a short stroll away. There are toilets by the cafe. Will definitely come back in the spring/summer, perfect for a picnic. There’s a play area for the children and a maze (although that beat us and we gave in but will try again next time lol). Well worth a visit on a nice dry, preferably sunny day. Could also see and hear the Severn valley steam train stopping nearby.

Loved it! Was a Sunday morning and it was quiet, the place was tranquil and beautifully kept. Some much place to cover, best bit was the gigantic redwood tree planted in 1853. Many benches are provided for the weary traveller. Definitely recommend for a quiet day.
