It's a long while since I've been to Biddulph Grange gardens. They aren't far away (just over an hour) but in a direction we don't think of travelling when thinking of a day out; maybe it's the thought of rush-hour traffic in Stoke that's off-putting. Anyway, younger daughter was home recently and as Biddulph lies roughly half way on her journey home we decided to all go there, and break her journey before she carried onward and we returned home.
It's an amazing place - a fantasy garden with follies, grottoes, tunnels, a mock Chinese temple, an Egyptian tomb, a stumpery, and long borders of colourful dahlias; all packed into a comparatively small area. An entrancing place for adults and children alike
