• York Gate Garden, charming, intimate and contemporary (website)

• Biddulph Grange, known for its 19th C. Victorian eclectic charm (website)

• Elizabethan Garden at Kenilworth Castle, an authetic re-creation of Dudley’s 1575 garden created especially for the Queen (website)

. . . . . . . and several more.

And in Wales we’ll visit:
