Not from here is the Walled Garden at Baumber. It's one of the quirkiest gardens I've ever visited.
The tea room and snack shack are both built from reclaimed doors and windows.
Despite being several miles from the sea there are beach huts and a boat.And, despite being thousands of miles from Egypt there's a Pharaoh and a crocodile.
I shall be going back very soon!
Love the shack from reclaimed windows. My cousin is currently building a greenhouse from recycled windows but I doubt it will be as colourful as what you saw! Hope all is well with you. Love Margaret (NZ)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Margaret. I think someone had visited a paint factory!
DeleteHow neat. I could have built something with all the doors we found in the barn!
ReplyDeleteLots of imagination needed but very worthwhile!
DeleteI like that crocodile, it looks rather realistic. The garden looks like a fun place to visit.
ReplyDeleteThe croc "lives" on the beach! It is fun and very relaxing.
ReplyDeletejust up the road and yet ive never been
ReplyDeleteGet thee there! Totally free, including parking. Only restriction is that you can't take your own food in.
DeleteMy condolences in the passing of your Queen.
ReplyDeleteThank you. She was hugely loved, admired and respected.
DeleteMy son-in-law made their greenhouse from old windows .. a lovely and useful way to recycle!
ReplyDeleteand it will get even lovelier as things grow!
