The best time to visit Lillington and Longmoore Gardens for a holiday rental is in September, as the summer peak season winds down. From July to September, the gardens are in full bloom, showcasing vibrant flora and providing a great backdrop for leisurely strolls and picnics. During this time, the weather is typically mild and pleasant, with average temperatures around 18-20°C, ideal for outdoor activities and sightseeing.
September offers visitors a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the beautiful gardens without the bustling crowds of peak summer. As the month progresses, you can experience the transition of the seasons, with the flora beginning to shift into autumn hues, creating a picturesque setting for photography enthusiasts.
For those looking for a more budget-friendly option, December is considered the low season. It's cooler, the charm of the gardens remains, and you can enjoy a peaceful retreat with fewer tourists, allowing for a more intimate experience of the area's natural beauty.
