    Demonstration / Talk / Lecture

At Caerhays Estate, join owner, Charles Williams, for an inspiring lecture and garden tour. Caerhays has 83 Champion UK and Ireland trees by height and girth. Only 9 other UK and Irish gardens have more. Learn the methods for measuring record trees and examine the growth rates of some over the past decades with examples for attendees to view. The garden tour will take in as many of the Champion trees as possible at Caerhays.

Please bring appropriate clothing and footwear for the garden tour. Refreshments and meals are available to purchase in the Magnolia Tea Rooms within the castle courtyard.
