Yes - as you say, it is personal taste. Personally, I find myself rather
bored by huge lawns surrounded by curving borders, and much prefer a
journey of exploration My three favourite gardens are Biddulph Grange,
York gate, and the Forbidden Corner ;-)

Are you referring to the Forbidden Corner in or next to Wensleydale,

That's the one.

or are
there more than one place with such a name?
I have seen the road sign often enough, but have never followed it up, not
knowing what it referred to.

A fantastic multilevel 'maze' including hedge maze, maze of woodland
paths, twisting paths through garden, various trick water features,
'ruined castle', underground area with multiple passages, including a
room with 7 identical doors and a revolving floor ....

Basically a folly, of great delight for children, but beautifully
executed, with none of the shoddiness normally attached to such features
(it was originally built as a folly for the owner).

But I like it for the interest of the garden, the winding paths, the
variety of shrubs used, the tree stump carved to form a caged witch, the
carved wooden snakes hidden in some of the trees, the variety of cut-
leaved elders, and so on.
