It was a very busy Kingston Lacey on Sunday as it was advertised as 'Snowdrop Sunday'. You will see from the pictures why that is. We'd only gone over for a quiet walk and a chance to have our dinner in the restaurant but our plans were hampered by the numbers of people. Bridie is up from Plymouth for the weekend and is taking Glen back to Plymouth for a few days over half term leaving Alison, myself and Maria for half term.
There is a lot to do with the building work in progress after a 2 week break whilst the builder went on a fortnight anniversary cruise. That means we're getting the rest of the house together.
Back to Kingston Lacey. The snowdrops were everywhere and seemed to have thrived in the colder temperatures we've had over the past few weeks. It must have been even better when they popped out from the blanket of snow. The rest of the gardens were understandably muted by the time of year with access round the place restricted to prevent damage to the sodden ground.
We ended up having lunch at The Stocks at Furzehill and it was lovely.
