About us
Abbotsbury Subtropical Garden is situated at Weymouth, Dorset, England. It was established by the first Countess of Ilchester as a kitchen garden for her nearby castle. Developed since then into a magnificent 20 acre garden filled with rare and exotic plants from all over the world. Many of these plants were first introductions to this country, discovered by the plant hunting descendants of the Countess. It offers a unique, stunning setting for your special day and a spectacular backdrop for your photographs. From a small intimate service and reception to a large event - all can be arranged to the highest standard. There are many buildings within the garden which can be the perfect place for the ceremony and are fully licensed.
