Visited in late May for the bluebells, magnolia and azaleas which were all in full bloom. There's a lake with Mandarin Ducks, geese, ducks and coots, Cafe and toilets, outside eating spot and lovely walks. At this time of year the place is stunning, apparently it is in Autumn too. Lovely day spent here, would do it again definitely.

this is such a special place to walk in especially with the autumn colours. a great location if you are a photographer too.

Beautifully laid out walks accompanied by super birdsong. If we had chosen another day apart from the day boasting the best weather so far in 2013 (Bank Holiday Monday), we might not have had such a child-packed day (this is an ideal place for families), but the area is extenve enough so that, on less congested days, it would be...

We had coffee in the small cafe before our walk. The arboretum is well laid out, with nice tiered walks and there is a large lake... everything is late, so not much going on at the time of our visit on 18th April.

This is a lovely National Trust property which we visited because it was near to where we were staying. Not the best season to go as we missed both the bluebells and azaleas, so early May likely to be breathtaking. Nonetheless, we had a lovely walk and the open space was beautiful.

Winkworth Arboretum is a National trust property about 5 miles from Guildford in a quaint town called Godalming. The most striking thing about Godalming is that the houses are massive and the Waitrose in the centre of town even larger. The impression given is that a huge crater was created into which Waitrose slotted to fill the hole, and the... More

lovely national trust area outside Godalming on the way to Hascombe. Always spectacular in any season, lots of walks for all from level to hilly and amazing views. Sometimes they do special events for families such as Halloween trails and quizzes, worht checking out.
