Established in 1997, The National Herb Centre provides the public with an opportunity to see, enjoy and learn about herbs.
But it's much, much more than that!
Set in a spectacular location on the B4100 just outside Banbury and overlooking three counties, The National Herb Centre has many display herb gardens planted to show how they can enhance any garden, with their wide selection of colours and tantalising scent.
You can walk along the nature trail where you will see fabulous flora, fauna and wildlife.
There are plenty of children's activities for younger visitors to enjoy, including a play area where they can take the Labyrinth challenge. Children's parties can be organised - a wonderful alternative to the usual children's party!
Various events are held for adults, children, and families throughout the year at The National Herb Centre.
The National Herb Centre's garden centre and nursery sells a wonderful selection of plants which will delight the chef, intrigue the gardener and fascinate anyone with an interest in alternative medicine. Knowledgeable staff are on hand to give advice on all aspects of growing your own herbs.
You can sample the unique herbal flavours in The National Herb Centre's friendly Herb Bistro and Deli Coffee Shop where dishes are prepared using fresh produce, mainly from the Centre's own farms and gardens.
A well-stocked shop stocks an extensive range of books, seeds, essential oils, herbal-based cosmetics and gifts.
The National Herb Centre really does offer something for everyone! With free entry and free parking, it's the perfect day out.
