Pashley Manor Tulip Festival

Now in its 27th year, this Festival is hard to beat for the sheer brilliance of its massed plantings of 105 different varieties

This garden is lovely at every time of the year, but rarely more so than on a frosty winter dawn

Come early May, and this restored Victorian Parterre is awash with thousands of tulips
