Milford Lake

Access from Penwood Road by the A34.

Open: the first and second weekends in May, then 7 days per week throughout July and August.

Dogs on leads.

In 2010, this walk is open on the first May Bank holiday weekend and the following one (May 8th and 9th). It is then open from July 4th until September 2nd. The rhododendron and azalea gardens around Milford Lake have been admired by visitors for nearly 200 years.

Some of the rhododendrons have been massed together for effect and there are also individual, unusual species collected for colour and rarity. First created by the 2nd Earl of Carnarvon,(1772-1833), they were significantly developed by the 7th Earl (1924-2001) and his friend,the renowned landscape gardener, Jim Russell.

The Milford Walk begins just inside the drive to London Lodge (off the Penwood Road). It takes the visitors down in a circular route past very old tall azaleas, some unusual homebred specimens on the “Ladies Walk”. The southern part of the walk follows a woodland path and skirts Dunsmere Lake, looking across at the Temple of Diana.

Some car parking is available on the other side of the road opposite the entrance to London Lodge, but parking is entirely at owner’s risk.
