The place would need a whole series of posts to do justice to the gardens (twenty years a'growing), the vitality of the planting, the wholesomeness of the setting, the myriad blooms overflowing with apparent effortlessness.
Of course, our primary purpose was (utterly scrumptious) food. There's an easy feel to the courtyard cafe: sit out and enjoy a sunshiney breakfast, while various tame and wild creatures wander through (a robin frequented our table to check out any crumbs - we were like, soooooo Francis of Assisi).
And due to our intent focus on food, cameras were not taken out until we were well sated, strolling through the gardens...
A regular haunt for the summer, I suspect :-)

Garden is lovely but I miss when food was served in the garden off garden tables and the flow between kitchen and garden was very open. Kids used to swing from a tyre swing in the big tree and play with the chickens.....hungry just typing this!
Sounds fab!
