Open GardensGardens you can visit

I had great fun today - not as much rain as expected but very muddy - glastonbury for gardeners! The floral pavillions were lovely and I couldn't resist buying one or two things. I think the whole thing about Hampton Court is that it is fun, relaxed and informal and if you ignore all the sales banter you might just find a bargain or two!

Also known as Ferozeshah Mehta Gardens. Hanging Gardens of Bombay are terraced gardens perched at the top of Malabar Hill. Ideal place to enjoy sunset views over the Arabian Sea.

I'VE JUST POSTED A BLOG WITH PICTURES ON OUR VISIT TO HANHAM COURT.
THIS GARDEN IS A MUST SEE!

A really peaceful place - with interesting garden and lovely sculptures.
Well worth a detour for!

Bess of Hardwick and her husband also built the original Chatsworth which is west in the Peak District. The gardens are very pretty with lots of herbaceous borders and the herb/medicinal garden is inspirational.
