Horticultural heaven, acres of gardens which are pleasant to look at, it’s really a huge plant collection rather than a true landscaped garden. Features include the huge rock garden, new tropical glasshouse with children’s learning area.
For the very keen there’s a library and plant trial areas.
Plenty of catering, from cafes to restsaurant, the latter needs booking.
It can get very busy at peak times, so best to avoid these, strangely doesn’t open until 10am, and I think it’s members (RHS) only on Sundays.
Large gift shop, and plant sales, good ranges, but a little pricey.

Wisley RHS garden is a nice place to visit in an afternoon or morning. There is a large variety of themes to walk round including a collection of different house gardens, winding paths through woodlands and plant collections, a large rockery with myriad waterfalls and so on. The most recent addition is the new glasshouse which contains more exotic plants.
The gardens are expansive and if you take time to stroll round the fruit fields, arboretum and pinetum you’ll end up spending a long time there. This is good as it is about £8 per adult. There is also a garden shop and several cafes.
