More than 3,000 different trees–in particular, the fine collections of oaks and maples–are put on a striking autumn show at Thenford Arboretum at Thenford House, Northamptonshire, the home of Lord and Lady Heseltine.

At this time of the year, it is the autumn colour of trees and shrubs that catches the eye - there are some dramatic displays of autumn leaves and berries throughout the garden.  Oaks and maples contribute most to Thenford’s autumn flare of colour. Oaks are one of Lord Heseltine’s great passions and he has amassed nearly 400 species and cultivars. 

Maples can also be relied upon for autumn brilliance. Thenford has handsome specimens in the water-gardens valley and near one of the lakes. The Heseltines’ head gardener recommends lovers of autumn colour to wander down the water-gardens valley for an unforgettable experience.
