A 40 acre oasis of beautifully landscaped gardens and glasshouses right in the heart of the city. It is actually less than 500 metres from my faculty to the Garden and less than 1 km from the Garden to the town centre. The Garden has a collection of over 10,000 labelled plant species in beautifully landscaped settings, including Rock Garden, Lake, Glasshouses, Winter Garden, Woodland Walk, and nine National Collections.
