Sunday 30 May - We drove to the tip of the Severn to see the amazing gardens at Westbury court. These restored gardens are the best example of the Dutch style water garden in the country. It was a beautiful day, perfect for strolling around the very relaxing gardens. Canals of water run along the gardens and are lined with shrubbery. Between and around the canals are a number of other gardens including a small walled garden, and a kitchen garden. There was also a rabbit warren and a lovely garden where the grass was about knee high with paths mowed through it. At the back of the garden is what is thought to be the oldest evergreen oak in England. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and could have spent the whole day there with a book and a picnic but we had other things to see.
