Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I really appreciate the
replies.

They have convinced us to visit the The Garden House on Tuesday.

On Wednesday we will take stock of what we saw and then possibly
pick from among Pam's suggestions and a couple of others we have
turned up.

Any opinions on the possible suitability of the Margery Fish
garden at East Lambrook Manor between Yeovil and Crewekerne?


Don't bother, is my advice. We went there earlier this year and not only
has it been badly re-planted in my husband's opinion (it was my first visit)
large amounts of it haven't been planted at all because they're trying to
fight ground elder naturally.
You could go easily to Rosemoor the RHS flagship in N Devon.

What's that garden like in N Devon, possibly near Barnstaple - created
by a Dr Smart, and you put some money in a box and wandered in freely -
do you know the one I mean? This was about 30 years ago. and ISTR it'd
got taken over by NT or someone on his death.
