Mottisfont Abbey in Spring

Mottisfont Abbey and Gardens is set in the beautiful countryside along the River Test.

This is another National Trust property and is notable for the walled garden which has some fine specimens along the walls. Gardeners can get a real sense of how the old walled gardens were run from a visit here.

For anyone wantig to explore the countryside there is a marvellous seven mile walk around the ground which is open even when the house and garden are closed.

Any couples looking for a romantic wedding venue would do well to have a look here as the setting is wonderful.

    This is where I blog about my interest in gardening and ecology. There is always something to do in the garden all year round and as we have an inner city garden the tasks are a little different to rural spaces.

    I work as a software developer now but a few years ago I had my own gardening design and construction business.
