I can't believe it was a week ago I was wandering around in sandals and soaking up the sun!
the thunder lightning, hail and rain on Thursday made it feel like a distant memory!
We enjoyed a wonderful day with my mum at Tatton Hall Garden last Saturday.
It is a National trust house, garden and park in Cheshire.
With a beautifully restored Kitchen Garden
In the rose garden was a beautiful pool. The garden was made for Lady Egerton in 1913.
Next to the Rose Garden was the Tower garden,
Then we walked through the Arboretum
Past the award winning Japanese Garden
then we visited the Fernery
And the Italian Garden in front of the hall.
It was almost 5pm but still lovely and warm
We strolled back towards the car
past the carousel
That was last Saturday.......today was grey and miserable
but I had a lovely time in Manchseter
we went to see Grease the musical......it was Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong!
We're experiencing wonderful weather, however this time of year we know it's here for only the time being.
ReplyDeleteAND, we could use some rain.
hugs
A beautiful day and what a wonderful place. Your pictures are fabulous
ReplyDeleteThanks for brightening my day

All of your photos for this post were Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong! I'd love to visit those gardens, but your photos are like being there. Really nice!
ReplyDeleteLucky you made the most of that good weather. Your visit looked delightful. The English really do gardens well don't they?
ReplyDeleteSnuggle up and stay warm now. Have a hot chocolate for me !!
Cheers
I can't believe that was only a week ago either!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks a lovely day; great photos.
Beautiful pictures and what a lovely place to visit.
ReplyDeleteOOOh I haven't been to Tatton for a while. You've just reminded me how lovely it is!

Oh, stop it, stop it, you're killing me with these gorgeous photos!! I want to BE there, in that garden!
ReplyDeleteAt least we're finally getting some nice weather here in AZ - but it's supposed to go back up to the 90's this week..ugh.
Thanks for the pretty pics, as always.
Hubby noticed that the temperature had dropped by 24 degrees in 4 days!!! It made me want to move somewhere that was warm the whole time. xxx
ReplyDeleteWe went to Tatton in the Summer and I loved the gardens especially the kitchen, rose and tower gardens. I would have loved to see more of the Japanese garden but it was closed off. I thought the Fernery was spectacular. The weather certainly has changed during this week:)
ReplyDeleteI like the two gate photos and the one of the tower best. It does look lovely and sunny and warm, at least you have the photos to look back on.

Can you imagine living in such a spectacular place? Quite extraordinary.
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE your new header. xo
Wonderful photographs!! We have been so dry it is comforting to see some beautiful greenery!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great day out, I do love to visit gardens, sadly unless there's a playground attached the kids are less excited. Fab photos of the carousel, it reminds me of a drawing project from my foundation course at Hull fair, I always think of that when I see such beautifully painted horses. Bethx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of Tatton Hall - well worth a visit I think. My treat is a trip to South Pacific in Manchester at the end of the month.
ReplyDeleteTatton Hall Gardens look spectacular. My favourite would have to be The Japanese Garden: so perfect and magical.

ReplyDeleteI loved those Sweet Peas! Not to mention that iron gate entry!! I feel inspired. Thanks.
