Sussex Gardens
One of the wonderful things about going on holiday is the chance to be inspired, to pick up new ideas. For garden lovers, Sussex has much to offer - though with the coronavirus, gardens have pretty much closed. |
When the wonderful Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens were open to the public, I used to visit regularly (they sold an annual pass at the time). I'd have a brisk walk around the grounds, say hallo to the wallabies, and enjoy being at one with nature & the wildlife. I always came away feeling uplifted in mind, body & spirit. And good news - Leonardslee Gardens opened again in March 2019 - and it looks fantastic! Gardens are a great place to be to both exercise and to sit and take in the view & the sounds of nature, whether they are your own or someone else's! Fortunately, there are plenty of stunning gardens to enjoy in West Sussex and even a web site to help you discover more of them!
