New garden trail launched at Knightshayes

Families can travel all around the world this half-term at Knightshayes, following in the footsteps of intrepid Victorian plant hunters. With the launch of a brand new family trail, they can discover amazing trees, shrubs and flowers from all corners of the globe.

The Knightshayes garden passport trail takes families all around the beautiful woodland garden. From Chile to Australia and Taiwan to North America, explorers will have to find the passport stamp on each tree and add it to their own Knightshayes passport which they can collect visitor reception.

A brand new addition to Knightshayes garden, the trail will be a permanent fixture for families to enjoy. “It’s part of ensuring we make the most of out of the brilliant outdoor space we have here,” says Alice Morgan-Brown, Visitor Services Manager at Knightshayes. “We want families to be able to enjoy Knightshayes in different ways, engage with nature and burn off energy outdoors.”

The trail and garden passport will be available all year round for free. In in addition, a brand new family house trail will be available in March. From dressing up as a butler, to learning how to fold napkins and lay out afternoon tea, families can step into the past and learn more about those who worked behind the scenes in Victorian times.
