Clyne Gardens
Gerddi Clun
A valley garden renowned for its rhododendron collection, with spring blooms, a Japanese-style footbridge and scenic lakes. Free to visit.
Clyne Gardens was once the Vivian family estate. It covers about 20 hectares and has more than 800 rhododendron varieties, along with several national plant collections. It is at its most beautiful in April and May, when the rhododendrons and bluebells are in flower. The grounds include a Japanese-style footbridge, lakes and woodland paths, and a Rhododendron Festival is held here every May. Admission is free. The garden is on the Mumbles Road and makes a good stop on a cycle ride along Swansea Bay.
