The Isabella Plantation is a 40-acre woodland garden set within a Victorian woodland plantation planted in the 1830's. First opened to the public in 1953, it is best known for its evergreen azaleas, which line the ponds and streams and at their peak of flower in late April and early May.

After Richmond Park, we will continue to Bushy Park. We will stop for refreshments at the park. Feel free to bring your own food and drinks or get some from the cafe in the park.
