| I had read about this place online...it sounded so lovely and intriguing that I had to seek it out...It was in the middle of nowhere, and not very far from town at the same time. You felt very far removed from everything... |
 |
| This was the path down to the Garden. It was very steep and rutted... |
 |
| But, when you came out of the woods at the bottom, it was oh-so charming! Lovely garden, great place for the kids to play and yummy food! What more can you ask? |
 |
| Right by the entrance was a view point for the waterfall. It wasn't huge, but it was very pretty... |
 |
| Tricia and Mallory await the tastiness that is to come... |
 |
| The family that runs the place has small children so they had created all these lovely things to keep the kids busy. William was pumping water for so long, I thought the creek would run dry! |
 |
| Charlie was enchanted by these horses, and the swing set was really fun too! They also had large pieces of wood to build with, sort of like large Lincoln Logs... |
 |
| Charlie got the honor of doing the french press for Daddy's coffee... |
 |
| The sisters found the swing in the yard and settled in... |
 |
| After lunch, we took a quick hike to this cave. I have no idea on the history, but I am betting it was a "folly", something wealthy land owners used to create on their property for fun....some even paid people to live in the hermitage and act reclusive and crazy. True Story!!! |
 |
| It was hand carved out, which is awfully impressive. |
 |
| On top of the cave, someone had carved out these seats in the stones. It was so fun! The view from the top was fantastic! |
 |
| The other chair... |
 |
| Our clan on top... |
 |
| View from within the cave... |
 |
| Charlie is always happy to ride along in the Ergo... |
 |
| The woods in England felt different from the woods in America. I honestly felt like Little John and Robin Hood should be swinging out of a tree at any moment... |
