    My personal favourite is Cliveden Manor (pronounced 'cliv'den) which is owned by the National Trust. It is a veritable cornucopia of different gardens and you really need almost a whole day to explore it.

    It boasts a Chinese Water garden, a topiary garden, herb garden, bluebell wood, rhododendron valley (on the way in, not to be missed in spring) several folleys and balconies and views you wouldn't believe!

    It's in Maidenhead, Berkshire.

    Now that is one that I have added to my list to visit. Have you any pictures. I will add some of my own favourites so far this week-end.

    Yes I have some, albeit rather old. But not the time to scan them in just yet - will do so sometime next week, Fran - like the tape - it is coming - promise!!!! Been rather an odd couple of weeks what with one thing and another.
