This week we went to Emmetts Gardens, a really lovely National Trust property and gardens in Kent, not far from us. We’ve been before so we knew how lovely it is,
but we hadn’t bargained on seeing SOOO many bluebells. We saw loads the other
week at Hatchlands Park, but there were so many more here I think. It was a bit
of a ramble round especially with the buggy but it was worth it. As usual we
took a picnic and just let the kids roam a bit. The rhododendrons and azaleas
were all in bloom and looked absolutely gorgeous, the grounds are just so well
maintained. We didn’t do any of the NT 50 things that day (well there was a bit
of rolling going on but I felt it didn’t count as it wasn’t a big enough hill!)
but we just enjoyed the sunshine and fresh air. I particularly loved the magnifying glasses that you can loan for the day, the kids loved walking around like Sherlock Holmes.
