The Joyful Arrival of Spring in Windsor: A Blossoming Tale!
As the last vestiges of winter retreat, Windsor awakens to the enchantment of spring. The air carries a promise—a whisper of renewal, a symphony of birdsong, and the delicate scent of blooming flowers. Here, amidst the historic streets and regal gardens, spring unfolds like a well-rehearsed ballet.
Windsor Great Park dons its emerald cloak, and daffodils stretch their golden heads toward the sun. The Savill Garden bursts forth with rhododendrons, camellias, and azaleas, painting the landscape in hues of pink and crimson. Visitors wander along winding paths, their footsteps softened by a carpet of fallen petals.
Riverside Strolls:
The River Thames sparkles, reflecting the azure sky. Couples walk hand in hand, their laughter mingling with the gentle lapping of water against the banks. Swans glide gracefully, their necks forming elegant arcs. Cafés spill onto cobbled streets, offering alfresco dining—a chance to savour the warmth (we say hopefully) of the sun on skin that has long forgotten winter’s chill.
Cherry Blossom Canopies:
Windsor Castle, standing sentinel atop its hill, is framed by delicate cherry blossoms. Their pale pink petals flutter like confetti, celebrating the season. Tourists and locals alike pause to capture this ephemeral beauty—a snapshot to carry in their hearts long after the blossoms have fallen.
Easter Anticipation:
As March waltzes toward its finale, Easter tiptoes in. The town prepares for festivities—a blend of tradition and merriment. Easter eggs appear in shop windows, their vibrant colours promising hidden delights. Families plan picnics in their gardens, where children hunt for chocolate treasures beneath ancient oaks.
And so, as the sun warms the cobblestones and cherry blossoms flutter like whispered secrets, Windsor embraces spring. The joy of longer days, lighter hearts, and the promise of new beginnings fills the air. As March bids adieu, Easter awaits—a time for reflection, gratitude, and perhaps a chocolate bunny or two!
In Windsor, spring is not merely a season; it’s a celebration—a reminder that life, like the blossoms, returns with unwavering grace

Like most people we were saddened to hear of the death of Prince Philip – he has been at the Queen’s side for 73 years and was her rock. Queen Elizabeth said that Prince Philip’s death “will leave a huge void”. Many flowers and tributes have been left at the entrance to Windsor Castle and the funeral date has been announced as Saturday 17th April 2021.
