The lake in Bodnant Garden in North Wales, United KingdomThis beautiful garden is one of the most popular in North Wales. It is not far from Conwy, on the North Wales coast. This hillside garden allows spectacular views over towards the Welsh mountains. The garden divides into two quite distinct parts. One much more formally planted than the other. Near to the Hall, a number of beautifully planted and ordered gardens and terraces are interlinked. So the garden with planting downhill towards ‘The Dell’ decidedly is more wild and informal.

And when in bloom, these flowers form a sea of colour throughout Bodnant.
