Default Garden coach tours

Pam Moore writes
Can anyond recommend any companies doing coach tours of gardens in
Britain or Ireland? I can no longer drive and have no means of
getting to gardens. Seeing York Gate on GW this week, and Bodnant
last week gave me cravings to visit some gardens in different parts of
the country.
Any suggestions? I'd like to do around a week visiting different
gardens each day, staying in decent but not extortionate hotels.
TIA

York Gate is near enough to the centre of Leeds to be possibly feasible
by taxi if you could get to Leeds. Buses near by too, I think. But if
you got yourself to Leeds, I'd be happy to take you - it's a long time
since I last visited. Harlow Carr has buses from Harrogate train station
(again, I'm always happy to visit). Parcevall Hall is also in the area
but a bit more tricky to access.
