Anyone who has ever enjoyed growing something, whether it be a small pot plant or a row of peas, can call themselves a garden lover. In these places, you will meet owners with hugely different gardens: some will be finished masterpieces, others will be works in progress, but all will be talking points. Our owners are experts on their own gardens of course, but they can often organise private visits to other gardens, direct you to good local nurseries and give you the low-down on which public gardens to visit nearby.
