Bolton Abbey Spring Garden Opening

Bolton Abbey Spring Garden Opening

19 April 2026

The Dales' most famous garden celebrates an early spring

Bolton Abbey's gardens are finally looking like spring. The rhododendrons, which usually don't bloom until May, are already showing colour. Staff say it's two weeks ahead of schedule. The estate is bracing for a bumper weekend of visitors looking for the first "spring photos" of the year.
