Anyway, talking about it last night reminded me of my visit there a few years ago. It, indeed, has a lovely garden, and I will try to remember to post some photos of it in the future. The event that I enjoyed a lot during my visit was seeing a mother Mallard and her little ducklings appear through the reeds, yellow irises and greenery at the edge of one part of the moat.
At first there was mummy Mallard and 2 little ducklings.
Then there were 4 little ducklings and, below, three of them are on the lawn and the other is just appearing through the long grass at the water's edge while the female Mallard looks on.
Then there were 5 little ducklings and the female Mallard was starting to preen her feathers.
At last all 6 little ducklings have come through the tall reeds and long grass and mum looks a bit distracted.
