Upper Gardens

#hellohalloween Free Spooky Escape Halloween events can be pricey, but the Upper Gardens are free — and still manage to feel spooky. The towering exotic trees look dramatic against the autumn sky, and the whole area is quieter than the central parts of Bournemouth. It feels like stepping into a secret woodland. Bring a coffee, take a slow walk, and soak in the eerie calm. Sometimes the best Halloween moments are the simplest. #hellohalloween
