Used to love visiting gardens with my father many moons ago.
Brooksby agricultural college open day was a highlight, Ingarsby Hall
also was worth a visit though open days were rare.
My wife and I turned up at Barnsdale a little late so will try again this
weekend. Can anyone recommend any gardens within easy reach of east
Leicestershire?
Feel the need to cut down the rounds of golf and get 'ate and abate' :0)


Some garden centres have books listing open gardens in their area.

Thanks Alan will check at Barnsdale tomorrow


You could also look out for the Yellow Book at garden centres and bookshops.
That lists gardens open for charity throughout the whole country, with dates
and times.
