Wentworth Castle Gardens
Wentworth Castle Gardens in South Yorkshire is a rare and rewarding discovery — a vast baroque landscape surrounding an 18th-century country house, containing a National Collection of rhododendrons that puts on a spectacular display each spring. The gardens fell into long decline before painstaking restoration work brought them back to life, and there's a distinct sense of a hidden treasure found again. Winding paths through woodland and formal terraces make for endlessly varied exploration.
