Golden Acres - Leeds
Leeds is blessed with some wonderful parks and green spaces. Golden Acres is a 137 acre park of gardens and mature woodland about six miles north west of the city centre at Bramhope on the A660 road towards Otley. The day of our visit in mid August the late flowering beds were particularly spectactular. In general the gardens are well tended and well laid out. Disabled access is generally good and motorised scooters are available, these can be resrved in advance of your visit by phoning 0113 2613064.
