Elizabethan Gardens, Corolla, NC
Elizabethan Gardens in Corolla are a beautiful and unique destination for visitors to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The gardens span across 10 acres and feature stunning perennial gardens, a variety of natural habitats and historical structures, as well as breathtaking nature walks and trails. Established in 1974, the site is one of the best-preserved examples of a traditional Elizabethan pleasure garden in the United States.
The centerpiece of the gardens is a replica 16th century English cottage designed by renowned architect A. Lawrence Kocher. This picturesque building has been recreated from original plans and photos of actual Elizabethan cottages found in England and serves as a museum, gift shop, classroom and office for the site's many educational programs.
Beyond this cottage lies lush meadows that house more than 600 varieties of plants from around the world, including rare ferns, exotic perennials, colorful annuals, native shrubs and trees. Visitors may also explore six distinct habitats located within the garden grounds that range from salt marshes to maritime forests, each hosting an abundance of wildlife—from migratory birds to butterflies to small mammals like raccoons or opossums—making it an ideal spot for bird watching or nature photography.
A two-mile walking trail loops through all parts of this sprawling park offering ample opportunities to appreciate its natural beauty along with special features like sculpture gardens or arbors with blooming vines as far as the eye can see. The grounds also host special events throughout most months such as concerts or lectures on horticulture while also serving as an outdoor classroom for local schools or universities looking to educate their students on conservation methods or ecofriendly gardening practices.
Whether you're looking to go for a peaceful stroll among vibrant flowers or learn about Elizabethan culture, Elizabethan Gardens in Corolla have something for everyone—including tours led by expert guides who can point out interesting tidbits about local history or answer questions related to gardening along with demonstrations on centuries-old techniques still used at this beloved destination today.
