Whilst in that area a visit to Bodium Castle is worth while, no gardens
but the best kept castle in the UK, and where Ivanhoe was filmed; for
those with long memories.

I've a horrible feeling that I privately recommended Herstmonceux to
Sacha. when
I meant Bodiam. It is easier to spell too. OTOH Herstmonceux does have
gardens.


Lol! I wish we'd 'done Bodiam' but no time. As for Hurstmonceux, that
will have to be another trip to somewhere, sometime. I want to see Leeds
Castle and Hever some time, too but we're too far from them to do it in
this trip which is meant to be a holiday, too!


Well when you go back for Leeds Castle and the rest you must go to
Canterbury, if you haven't been there, well worth a visit.


Hope so, David. It's such a beautiful area and some of the gardens are
just wonderful. It's a small thing but we were envious of the beautiful
hollyhocks we saw. Here, they develop rust very quickly.
