Royal Roads University and Hatley Park is a National Historic Site and one of the few Edwardian estates in Canada with its key structural elements intact. This is also the home of Hatley Castle with a landscape with six different sublime qualities to which a great garden can aspire. Grouped in their traditional complementary pairs, they are spaciousness & seclusion, artifice & antiquity, watercourses & panoramas. In addition to these desirable attributes Hatley park has a healing restorative landscape and unique atmosphere unsurpassed by any garden in Canada that includes a Japanese, Italian, and Rose garden.

Bring the kids
Summer’s here and Canada’s public gardens are at their best. You know you want to visit them yourself – who wouldn’t want to stroll through a beautiful park filled with flowers – but maybe you feel you’re so tied up with your children or grandchildren you just can’t get away. Well, there’s an easy solution to that: bring them along!
