Lovely place to wander through , a bit uphill in places but also lots of seats to rest on! There's plenty to see and they offer puzzle sheets / hunts for children to do. Cafe and gift shop with nice seating area both indoors and outside.

Gorgeous collection of plants and trees, easy walking trails, very well laid out. You find a map at every corner, so you can’t get lost. At £4 per person, this is fantastic value. Family friendly walking, fresh air and educational. Parking, cafe and lots of outdoor seating options.

Visited a few Sundays ago during a weekend break in Durham. We walked from the city centre using part of the Riverside Walk &, in the glorious warm sunshine, it was a pleasant walk, but the signage is a bit lacking. Google maps got us there. The gardens are lovely. Lots to walk around, lovely outside seating area and a great hot house with its very own rainfall. Staff were friendly & efficient - being Mother's Day they were very busy. Would recommend a visit.

Stunning, didn't complete the whole forty gardens. Plenty of benches to sit and reflex the scenery. Can't wait to go back in a couple of months for flowers to come out. Ideal for picnic, little cafe which sells tea, coffee, sandwiches and cakes.

It's been a long time since we've been here. But from the lovely daffs by the entrance and the trees all around it was a lovely, spring walk. Sights, sounds and smells fresh and calming. Tulips starting to come out, blossoms fading and still to come, primroses and much more to enjoy. The white of the silver birch bark was eerily beautiful. Birds singing. A great time.

Durham City, Botanical Gardens. Beauty surrounds us, in a Rich, Deep, Array. More so in Spring and Summer, each & every day. Some; with Green Fingers and the conviction to Dress their Garden by Hand. Add a Contribution to the Bloom of England's Green an Pleasant Land. For those able to visit The Botanical Gardens in Durham there is a Feast. A Plethora of Colour to Savour in Sunshine, for a Few Hours at Least. Awesome Surroundings, Comfortable Seating, relaxing Walks, A Vista of Splendour to Savour, as Nature 'Talks'! We MUST Value the Assets that this One World Offers ALL. Before the Veil of Catastrophe comes to Befall!

Beautiful! A gorgeous place for a stroll and watching the wildlife. Also wonderful for small children, lots of places to hide and have wholesome fun in. The cafe is lovely, soup and a roll on a cold day is gorgeous!

It's a nice place for a walk or stroll but I personally don't think there is much to see. Since it is close to the hill colleges I do recommend going at least once as a uni student. They have an area for sakuras but it was a little underwhelming.

I thought Durham Botanic Garden was a lovely place to stroll around on a sunny spring day. Planted across 25 acres, the garden has several sections connected by footpaths. They include a North American and Alpine garden plus a zone with bamboo. The greenhouse hosts plants from jungle and desert areas. With a café, it was easy to spend three hours at the botanic garden.
