The palette of colours is extraordinary and<br />

there are <strong>14</strong> garden areas separated by<br />

hedges, flower beds and bushes, joined by<br />

a path that weaves under trees and<br />

through secret bowers.<br />

All of the gardens are enchanting - quite<br />

literally because the constant theme here<br />

is fairy tale. Adults and kids alike will fall<br />

under the spell of Patricia's imaginative<br />

designs and creations. When the five<br />

hundred different sorts of roses scent the<br />

air in June it’s overwhelming and breathtaking.<br />

At other times there are swathes of<br />

blue irises, or a host of golden daffodils<br />

and in autumn a plethora of pumpkins<br />

thrill visitors.
