Brightwater Gardens — Attraction in West Lindsey

A nice walk. But sadly they've opened at the wrong time of year. 24th February is too late in the year unfortunately.... at least in 2024. Of course it's been an early Spring and of course these flowers are liable to flower at different times each year. But it would be fair for Brightwater Gardens to close the snowdrops walk earlier if the snowdrops are all clearly well past their best which certainly were by 24th February this year. That's a shame. A disappointing visit. The place seems to present itself as far more grand than it actually is. Cafe also rather underwhelming. Not too say that if they snowdrops were in full bloom that it wouldn't be spectacular - I'm sure it would. Or later in the season when wildflowers are blooming. Could be worth another visit later...

What a fabulous place to visit, and just what I needed after a challenging week. The current entry price is £6 per adult and £3 per child.

Would certainly go back and would recommend anyone to visit if you love seeing beautiful gardens and wandering through the Lincolnshire countryside. What a fabulous place to relax and unwind.

It is easy terrain, a gentle incline to the snowdrop walk and seating along the way although you can never have too much seating. The dedicated tea room has a basic menu. Just be aware it is not a card taking venue. There are plants on sale which reflect what you see in the garden and we were lucky to have a flypast by...
