Needs more development and to be more interactive and to be both a learning and relaxation space. The staff ranged from disinterested to rather incompetent e.g confused about helping us exit the car park. It could be super

My lady and I both like trees so this is the place! The trees are laid out in the order that they arrived in the British isles after the great ice sheets melted. The amble round took about 90 minutes. There is a toilet and parking on site but you'll have to take your own munchies.
Great stuff

Very overgrown, couldn't see some of the trees very easily. No facilities but does have a free car park.

Great learning day out. Lovely place, lots of information to digest and a great place for a walk.

Great little gem. Peaceful spot for a mini walk and some nice info about the trees. It is open on weekends now. The website should read botanic-garden and has more info if you go to the right site.

A lovely quiet patch of south Leicester with plenty of interesting and we'll labelled tree species. Lots of wildlife. Paths a little slippy underfoot, so recommend sturdy footwear.

Spent a lovely couple of hours with the kids at a Leicestershire Wildlife Trust event, where they got to make a lantern from bamboo and tissue (complete with a battery operated candle). When they'd finished making them, they got to take them round the arboretum.
