Last Tuesday while reading the local paper I noticed that Bodnant Gardens www.nationaltrust.org.uk/bodnantgarden
was holding an promotional open day for local accommodation providers. So as the
weather was absolutely fantastic I reluctantly (!!) left my gardening
to go for a free visit. It just so happened that I arrived as a guided
tour was setting off. Graeme led us around the new Winter Garden area
and then on throughout the rest of this amazingly varied garden. There is something to suit everybodies taste. The walk was so
interesting as we heard about the histoty and the future plans as
well as being given information about the plants. Graeme was an
excellent guide,informative and interesting to listen to.

We are so lucky to have such a wonderful garden so near by. It is only about 15minutes drive away but fortunately it is also possible to get there by public transport. If you find yourself in this area it is definitely worth a visit
The information that you provided was thorough and helpful. I will have to share your article with others.

Thanks for leaving a comment....it doesn't happen too often!. Glad you enjoyed the blog. I think Bodnant is a very special garden in that it has so many different areas and all so different.
DeleteI am always suprised to find that people find my Lymehurst blog. How did you come across it?
