Fletcher Moss Botanical Garden — Attraction in Manchester

Beautiful little place if you have been before. Situated on Wilmslow Road going through Didsbury Village to get to it. Just follow the road round till you get round the corner where you see the Didsbury Pub set back off the road. Parking can be a bit difficult if you dont know the area. But as far as I am aware you can park behind the pub its free unless they have changed it! The Botanical Gardens are to your right across the road from the pub. I've been in there a few times & its just nice to see all the lovely flowers & trees in the summer time. Fletcher Moss is walking distance past the pub where you will see the entrance. Beautiful area with lovely carved wood animal benches as well as other park benches to sit on. A little cafe there too where you can buy hot or cold drinks. As you walk in you will see railing & steps leading down to their gardens. Beautiful flowers beds with over flowing flowers from trees. A tree shaped like an elephant is there too. Little streams of water falls coming from rocks as well. Further down as you walk along there is a pond with wild flowers in the water. Just a magical place. We were lucky to see a robin following us while we were there. Bees amongst the flower beds & sometimes butterflies too. There is also a picnic area past the house going through the gardens when you walk through. You will see a small parking area too on your way which is situated on Mill Gate lane if you want to park there, its only small if you're lucky to get parking that is! Just a nice place to go & sit & have a quite moment to yourself! Well worth the visit to either!! If you want a pub lunch the pub do nice meals too as I have had a few meals in there too. Nice service & friendly staff...

Fletcher Moss is a must if you're passing through Didsbury Village. It's a stunning ornamental garden with an amazing variety of trees, plants and shrubs. The volunteers do an exceptional job with the upkeep. Stenner Woods, just behind the gardens is a lovely little walk too. Last but not least, don't forget to visit the beautiful Parsonage right next door to Fletcher Moss and have a wander around their fabulous little garden . There is always some crackin exhibitions taking place in the Parsonage itself. P.S Don't forget to visit the very popular and reputable cafe in Fletcher Moss. The food and drink...

Spring has sprung and so have I!

Serenity and peace of immeasurable proportions upon entering the wild and wonderful world of Fletch Moss Botanical Gardens. The buzz of bees, the flutter of butterflies, flora and fauna are no strangers to this majestic oasis teeming with all manner of creepy crawlies, beautiful buds and even... A Terrapin 🐢 (if you're lucky to spot him)

I can't recommend this gentle escape more for all my fellow Mancunians far and wide! The number of pubs lining the outskirts of the park are not to be...
