Throughout Greater Manchester are some stunning parks and gardens to visit when the sun is out
It may have taken a while but spring is finally delivering with the sunny weather this week. With balmy days ahead it’s time to shed the layers, pop on some sunglasses and venture outside.
Tucked between Ye Olde Cock Inn and The Didsbury on Stenner Lane is Parsonage Gardens, a more compact version of its neighbour. The entrance to the garden is rather grand and a little bit foreboding, with a stone archway topped with a carving of an eagle.Unlike other parks and gardens where you can peek through wrought iron fences, the Parsonage Gardens is hidden behind high walls - if you didn’t know it was there you could easily walk past it.
It’s a gorgeous building, partially hidden behind large palms - it could easily double for a location abroad on a sunny day. Today the building is run by the Didsbury Parsonage Trust and can be used for weddings, exhibitions and as a community space. The garden has won various awards in the past, including a gold in the RHS North West in Bloom - and its easy to see why with the impressive range of blooms on display. It’s a tranquil place which feels a million miles away from the buzz of Didsbury's high street.
