Days Out - National Garden Scheme, Deans Court, Wimborne

Next to the lovely Sharland & Lewis emporium in Wimborne, you can find Dean's Court.  Seldom open, I'm going to be taking a quick trip there tomorrow when the Gardens are open as part of the National Garden Scheme.
 
I'll have a chance to wander round the fish pond, herb garden and apiary and with luck the apple orchard will be coming into bloom too.
The house makes a perfect backdrop to the stunning setting.  I can almost hear Mr Darcy splashing into the lake above!
Rows and rows of beans, peas and squashes.
They have an amazing kitchen garden and as well as enjoying something in their tea room, you can buy fresh produce in their shop.

If you can't get there tomorrow, they are also open on May 15th, June 16th and July 3rd.  Check the NGS website for details.

  1. It looks gorgeous with all the spring flowers and lush greenery. I think Mr Darcy would approve!

    1. Thanks for your comments on our blogs Rachel. Hope it doesn't make you too homesick for Old Blighty!
