Nestling in a fold of the Surrey Hills Ramster is famous for its stunning spring colour, with over 25 acres of peaceful woodland, views of lakes and hillsides, filled with colour and interest. It is renowned for its magnificent displays of rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias, and many rare and unusual trees and flowering shrubs.
Ramster is one the best places in Surrey to see autumn colour. The unique 100-year-old avenue of maples, woodland areas with oak and larch, and American red gum tree Liquidambar - with its long-lasting autumn shades of orange, crimson and purple - create a breath-taking burst of colour not to be missed.
Our lovely tearoom serves locally roasted coffee, afternoon tea, sandwiches, homemade soup and delicious cakes. We will be serving refreshments from outside only and are currently operating on a takeaway basis.
