Following a hugely successful first year, The Rutland Flower Show returns to The Rutland Showground from 14–16 August 2026.

From Friday 10 to Sunday 12 July, Global Birdfair returns to Rutland Water for a vibrant weekend of wildlife, conservation and outdoor inspiration, welcoming nature lovers from across the world to one of the region’s most spectacular natural settings

As summer settles over the Lincolnshire countryside and sweet pea season approaches its peak, Easton Walled Gardens is once again glorious with colour and scent. From fragrant flowers, romantic borders and peaceful walks to coffee and shopping for gift items, stationery and art materials in The Courtyard, plus summer events, it remains one of the loveliest places in the region to slow down and enjoy the season

They evoke a sense of cheer, flowering when little else does, marking the end of winter and the beginning of longer days and kinder weather. We look at special snowdrop-related events across the region.

The Rudd-Jones family went to explore the ‘Hide & Secrets’ Adventure Play at Burghley and had a whale of a time at this impressive new attraction – even going back the next day!
