A bit different - we have just had 'The Secret Gardens of Faversham' opening over the weekend. Lovely weather, not alpine gardens (except for ours) but very enjoyable. Most are close together in the old centre of the town, which is blessed with some wonderful old buildings; a few like ours are rather out of town and therefore attracted fewer people. And while you wander around you see all those gardens that would have been very interesting to visit but which weren't open...
