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

Our gardening club and many others that I know usually have trips to
gardens throughout the year and also a longer trip over several days,
during the summer. Why not ask your local club if they do them?

Thanks folks for suggestions, and thanks Kay for your offer to
accompany me to York Gate. I'll let you know if I come that way.
Janet, our gardening club do day trips, but not holidays. I'm looking
to get to gardens further afield, outside the Bristol area.
I'll look up those suggested. I don't drive, and because of my sight
problems am not confident about travelling alone. An escorted coach
trip would be just what I want.
Thanks again.
