o.ukLaid out in a formal design, Cowbridge Physic Garden is

the labour of love of a number of dedicated volunteers who established the garden within the old 18th century garden of Old Hall, the home of the Edmondes family. Since 2007the garden has been freely open to the public, and within itssplendid high stone walls, it presents a spectacular display ofcolour, fragrance, texture and fascination.

Although relatively small at just ½ acre (0.2ha), garden enthusiasts will love the variety of species that have been included. The planting plan reflects physic gardens from the17th and 18th centuries, but the result is so much more than aliving history lesson. The tranquil atmosphere of a much-lovedand nurtured garden is evident at every turn, bed and border.

Come and enjoy the Cowbridge Physic Garden. It is just 12 miles to the west of Cardiff. A short stroll from the High Street, it is opposite Holy Cross Church. Paths are flat, pedestrian access is easy. The garden is open every day exceptChristmas Day from 10am – 4pm in winter and 10am – 6pm in summer. Entry is free.

The garden was established and is now maintained entirely

by volunteers. Whilst running costs are kept as low as possible,

there is still a need for many thousands of pounds each year to

keep the garden in perfect condition. By becoming a Friend of
