Its been a while since I took you to
Wentworth Castle - remember I bought a ticket for a years worth of entry for myself and Mr
Heartshaped - so when we are skint, we go for a walk here as its only 10 minutes away too.
The colours in the
gardens have changed very much since last times visit.

They are doing a couple of tours of the house in September. It is a college, so it wont be like touring
Chatsworth etc - but still worth a visit.

As a bit of a bonus, the "friends" of
Wentworth Castle have been having a book, plant, CD and
Bricabrac stall over the summer to help raise money for the
Conservatory restoration. I picked up this adorable painted glass dish for £1.00

A nice place to have on your doorstep, the gardens look really attractive and it must be lovely once the trees start changing colour.
the flowers look great, what a nice way to spend several hours, I can see why you like going there x
What a beautiful dish! Lucky you to have some lovely gardens to visit on your doorstep.
Gorgeous photos. It looks a lovely place to visit, especially if it's only 10 mins away. Fab!
love the dish - really pretty
Yes that green plant is lovely, though I've no clue what it is either. Look forward to the aumtumn walk you'll take us on.
