Summer's coming


Sunday was a beautiful day in the kent countryside, Riverhill Himalayan gardens to be precise , and for those not in the know its the  house and gardens in Sevenoaks that appeared in the 'Country House Rescue'  program a couple of years ago. Hats off to the family for the work they have done so far in providing a tranquil and safe place for their visitors and also for providing a lovely little cafe with homemade food and lovely coffee ! Works are still in progress with garden developments due to be completed this year and next but it is a great place for craft inspiration, or just a day out in a beautiful place with stunning views of the Kent Weald. Lots planned for the coming season, March - September, with something for everyone so if you're in the area it's well worth a visit.



Couldn't resist taking a picture of this old gate with its tantalising glimpse of the once ,well kept kitchen gardens currently being renovated ..... for me there is always something lovely about old rusty wrough iron gates in their brick work  frame which draws you to take a peek at what lies within.... a sort of secret garden thing ! Looking forward to seeing the finished garden complete with its plants, flowers and water features.
