We will keep coming back as long as we can. I’ve been coming since I was little with my family and look back fondly on our days beneath the trees. I now take my own family here at least once a month. It’s truly beautiful and one of our favourite places to go.

I visited Westonbirt a few times during Xmas holiday, but this was my first time there in the daytime. Lots of visitors were there on Sunday. The car parks were full. Plenty of places to eat or drink. It is a nice walk around the park on a sunny day. It is worth the visit, although a bit of more entertainment would be great for the adults.

Lovely time as ever and the trees are stunning. Two downsides: food choices weren't great, 2, we managed to borrow a mobility scooter (of which, I don't feel they have enough for high season) but the battery ran down so fast we had to cut our walk short. This was to our advantage though, as we got to the car before the rain started!

Absolutely stunning place. Highly recommend going here. We have a membership as we love it so much. The trees all year round are incredible but autumn is by far my favourite. Lots to do for all the family. So many trees/bushes to discover, a kids trail (usually themed, currently is an autumn tree/leaf trail), lots of things to climb/play areas for the kids & sculptures to find such as gruffalo and friends and what’s the time mr wolf!

Absolutely stunning to see the autumn colours, great variety of trees. Biggest arboretum I've visited. Lots of space and trails. Tree top walkway offers a great perspective. Has indoor cafe and food stands. Pre booking tickets is advised. Plenty of free parking

Visited on November 15th and I'd say we just missed the peak for Autumn leaves. Visit a week earlier and it'll be fantastic.We lucked into visiting on a day of good weather. Had a pre-booked ticket with timed entry, though that didn't seem to matter all that much. The main issue was parking, which was very busy (although they hadn't opened the overflow).Couple of toilet sites available: at entrance and by the shop/restaurant.Expect a lot of walking.

Absolutely stunning display of Xmas lights but a bit disappointed with the lack of characters (elves, father Xmas, reindeer runway etc) and fun fair events during and after the walk. Previous years have definitely delivered more.

Really beautiful and special place, I just wish dogs were allowed in all of it.They are allowed in the new section, witch is huge, and they are allowed off lead in part of that side too, so there's a lovely relaxed atmosphere, and the colours are already amazing, with a lot still to come.
