I remember visiting Wimpole many years ago, when our kids were young. Do they still have a Rare Breeds farm there?
ReplyDeleteIt does post a rare breed farm, Mark but we were a bit disappointed with that part of the Estate really. It has plenty of good reviews on TripAdvisor so maybe we went at a bad time. There were plenty of pens with various pigs in them but most of the cows were out of sight in some sort of building at the back of the farm. You could hear them but not see them. The Shire horses where in the stables and you could only see their rear ends and tails and we saw just one goat that was well hidden in a barn and ftwo white cows and that was that.
DeleteI would certainly LOVE to have that huge greenhouse!!
ReplyDeleteIt was big but you couldn't go in and it seemed to house mainly tomato plants, Sue
DeleteWow! Such a huge garden! The trees look so tall and huge too! It must be there for years! How old is this place?
ReplyDeleteThey started building the house on Wimpole Estate in 1640, Malar. The oldest trees in the garden would probably have been planted around the mid 1700s.
DeleteI see someone has upsized my pond idea...?
ReplyDeleteYou can't trust anyone can you? Our pond idea started as something dustbin lid sized and was upsized but not to THAT extent. If only!
DeleteWow !!! Such a beautiful garden !! It would be great to visit this place someday ! Greetings !
ReplyDeleteWe will probably revisit some time, Ela.
DeleteOh my....what a beautiful place! I did enjoy the pixs.xxx
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed them, Dina
DeleteThanks for sharing these, Sue. The planting at Hyde Hall has certainly caught my eye. Your video is brilliant too - great camera work there. I love that walkway :-)
ReplyDeleteMartyn took the video with his gimbal. It's his new toy.
