    You probably passed me LMRR, you took more pics than I did.
    Glad you were able to see the rest. We have been to Sydling St Nicholas, Cerne Abbas and Maiden Newton in previous years.

    thats not a topiary bunny it's actually sposed to be a bear lol don't let Gloria hear u call it a bunny. I used to live in the manor house with the maze, the bear and he helicopter. It was such a peaceful place but I didn't really appreciate the garden when i was there so it was nice to go back and look at it.

    U might have passed us. You wouldn't have missed us if u saw us lol. I use a hiking stick as my walking stick as it's easier for me. So if u saw a 32 year old with a hiking stick and purple hair lol that was me.

    YDD that gaden was lovely it was just the right size and the smells were gorgeous. It was sheltered and a great sun trap. We sat and had a glass of squash there and didn't wanna move. The second pic ws a garden that hasn't opened before and it was really lovely and a contrast to it's neighbour which was a terraced cottage garden and this one was a more modern garden that was very neat.

    I stand corrected LMRR. I should have realised having said that you lived in the Manor House (when?) that you would know all about it. Looked like a small eared bun to me!:D

    Yeah I lived there Sam but I didn't have much choice on the oving front cause I finished the relationship with my man and his mum ownedthe house so I thought I'd better move :hehe:
