National Trust......


We are National trust members and have been for many years. We are lucky enough to have loads of great properties within an hour's drive and loads more within an hour and a half. Morden Hall Park is very close..so on a dismal day in half term we went exploring..details here













As you can see, it really was a good day, lots to see and do, we will definitely be back in the next holidays. 


My absolute favourite National trust place is Nymans, big grounds, interesting house, woodland and croquet lawn to mention but a few points of interest....










Armed with wellies, raincoats and picnics we headed off to the woods, it is great fun, really peaceful, very squishy with mud and alive with wildlife.....we did get somewhat carried away and several hours and miles later we returned to the formal grounds and were delighted to see....



Coffees for the big people and big tubs of ice cream with chocolate and strawberry sauce for the little people....





There is a very interesting story about this house read here

In the summer the boarders are just a riot of colour, so, I will be back, camera  at the ready....but if you live near and haven't been yet, you really must go xx

  1. Looks like a lovely place to visit :) We too have NT passes, we are given them for Christmas each year by my parents. We use them loads throughout the year.
