I don't even visit my local 'Attingham Park' where previously I would have just popped in for lunch and maybe take in a flower or two.

The site is what makes this special and the desire to make the most of it, in the booklet the owner talks about the ever changing way the garden progresses and that is how it should be, Beth Chatto who I knew in her early days at White Barn Farm was ruthless in rooting out failed plants and schemes and trying again, it is a how it should be, no garden should be set in aspic.
