The castle was a big hope as large landed estates like this can have excellent lawns surrounding <strong>the</strong> house.<br />
However it was very disappointing. The lawns were largely soaking wet and fungi were almost non-existant. The<br />
avenue up to <strong>the</strong> castle was equally wet so <strong>the</strong> issue is was this typical or <strong>the</strong> atypical result of a very wet year?<br />
