Lovely blog. I had a laugh at the sign about the mud pies ... lol

Thanks Pixi..we were pleasantly surprised when we started walking round..and the house was wonderful..I agree about the window,it's stunning...:o)

I enjoyed that visit, friendly gardens and very pretty borders, thanks bloomer ~ please can we see the inside too? was there cake and coffee??!!

thanks San.I thought the plaque by the 4 year old was so good..and that friendly dog was so cute ..he loved attention too :o)

Great blog Bloomer..I enjoyed the little trip out..from my armchair, love to see how the little ones get involved & their artwork displayed for all to see..Scarecrow looks as if he has been at the apples & pears, going off his fat tum..:o)

lol@ naughty pudding :)

Such delightful gardens, something for old and young alike.

Lovely place! Great to see children (gardeners of the future) being encouraged and taught about gardens.

Thanks Joanella..I will look like that before long,if I don't lay off the 'naughty stuff.':o)....I'm sure you think the same,Pixi!
Thanks Dd,and Nariz..just what we thought..It would be nice if a lot more places did the same..:o)

;))))

Blimey ... that's a well dressed scarecrow ... complete with a tie! ... I love the fact that the children are involved in the gardens ... the next generation of gardeners perhaps ... Really enjoyed this blog, Sandra, yet another on the 'must visit' places ... :o)

Thanks Shirley..you will have to come to Yorkshire for a month,to see all your 'must visit' places now .:o))))

I would really love to do that, Sandra ... not possible though ... :o(

Maybe one day,Shirley....a bit at a time .:o)

:o)))

I don't know how I missed this Sandra , it has so much more going on than I knew of , a lovely place I wish we had more time to spend there when we went to the party , perhaps next time we will be able to stay longer ,I love the way the children are involved , perhaps they wil one day be GOY members :o)

Glad you enjoyed it Amy..and pleased I mentioned it to you,after your comment on part 2..I knew it would be your kind of thing..hope you get to go again sometime.:o)
