50 th ANNIVERSARY PART TWO.

What a lovely place, I missed part one but have caught up now......
The artwork is fascinating, this seems to fit into its site. Some in other gardens seems pretentious and clashes with its surroundings, not this........

Many congratulations to you both, Dotty! What a fantastic choice of hotel for your celebration . . . I'm now saving up for a LED-light tree, lol.

Lovely blog - added to faves :)

Pamg you are so right, it blended in beautifully, a very clever lady runs the Hotel and she has some excellent ideas for the future...
Sheila thanks it was a lovely place, we could not fault it in any way, except it is quite difficult to find!! 'that tree' was out of this world, I took so many photographs of it, I was convinced it was real when I first saw it....Pleased you liked the blog.

I have just seen p1. Dd so thought I would write on this one and say many congratulations to you a both on reaching such a grand milestone, and this hotel and garden above is truly a beautiful place, well chosen by you two, so glad you had a good time, I really love that metal 'lily' on the decking it's amazing. We have seen those LED trees at our local GC and they are very expensive. Great blog, thank you.

I missed part 1 too - a belated congratulations to you both :)
I also agree with Pam - not OTT as some artwork can be.

GM and Scottish thanks for you good wishes, I do not think I will be buying any of the Art work well above our price range, unless we win the lottery!!

Really enjoyed part 2 of your celebrations .

Congratulations from me too. What a wonderful hotel and garden. All the artwork was terrific, but I did like the fountain, it was so dainty.

Thanks Kidsgran and Steragram, the art work made our day special.....hope to return soon!!

Terrific blog, so much to see and admire. I really liked the dragon but must admit, the figure sitting on the large 'throne' was particularly lifelike :)
Glad you had such a lovely 50th anniversary celebration, I must admit I would like to see more of the art work if you have more photos, please.

Thanks Gee, we are going again soon, so I will take some more photos for you, I think my OH fancied a throne like that, he should be so lucky!!

What a lovely place to stay Dotty, the art work looks amazing :o))

Good you had a great time and thanks for sharing. Love the artwork. Favourites...owl, crocodile and dragon.

How wonderful, DD. I love the sculpture after the boxing hares and the illuminated tree trunk in particular but it all looks inspiring. So glad you had something so memorable for your special occasion.

lost for words, apart from oh wow, oh wow ...

Now that is a stunning place to visit especially on your anniversary......I love the first sculpture of the bird of prey and of course the trendy young man on the seat would make a great feature in our garden....:)). Best wishes for many more happy years to come Dd!

Janey thank you very much for your kind comments, the bird of prey was my favourite, and OHs was the croc.......decided to stick with the trendy young man on the seat lol
Fran glad you approved....lol

TDB the tree was a 120 year old hollowed out oak....the sculpture after the hares was very difficult to photograph but was made from recycled materials and strung across the stream, it loked beautiful at night.
Lindak thanks, it was a very special place....
Annella if only we could afford some.......no prices on anything!!

Lovely blog Dd, and a lovely place to spend your 50th. Many more happy years to come ! :-)

Thanks Gralew, we hope to return shortly, a gift from our children!

Fantastic place. Really beautiful. I have never heard of that one DD, shall have to look it up. A great place to go for a special day. So pleased you had a lovely anniversary, and may you have many more. OH is looking well.

I missed this one DD. What a fabulous place to go for a special anniversary. I have not heard of this place before. Glad you enjoyed it, may you have lots more happy anniversaries.

Cinders many thanks for your kind comments, the Hotel is a wonderful place to stay, or just visit and have a cream tea, lunch whatever.
OH is worn out now, he does not enjoy too much heat!!

What an amazing place it's superb in fact I love it so much I'm putting my name down for my next 50th or sooner :o))

WOW and WOW again! What a wonderful Hotel/Garden - you were right, Dottydaisy, the pictures do the talking for you! I'm adding this blog to my favourites! If we ever decide to go for a break in the New Forest I might just send you a PM for the telephone number!!!

Amy you would certainly love this place, a very lucky choice.....
Petal go on treat yourself, people come from all over Hampshire just for Sunday lunch....
