One thing I missed the most this year is traveling and seeing great gardens. I wasn’t aware that this is so important to me before traveling for pleasure was not an option anymore due to Covid. Can you relate? I hope next year things change but we will see. It is certain though, once it is safe to travel, the next chance I get, I will book a ticket to England and visit its amazing public and private gardens, again. There is hardly anything in my life that has made me happier than the memorable vacation trips with my husband to this beautiful country. Until then, photos must help to tie me over. I hope you enjoy this and future posts of British gardens that I have visited in the past. The image shows a scene from the stunningly beautiful Arts and Craft Garden of Great Chatfield Manor, located near Bradford-on-Avon in Wiltshire. Isn’t the clipped humongous yew garden feature gorgeous? This “tree house” is formed out of four yews that have grown together over time. It is hollow inside and one can walk through. I love how this formal structure is contrasted by the romantic billowing cottage style garden beds in the foreground. By the way, Great Chatfield Manor has been a film location for the very successful British TV series Poldark which has been loved by many Americans, too. Wishing everyone who celebrates it a lovely 4th of Advent. I can’t believe we are that close to Christmas already. #chalfieldmanor #chalfieldmanorgarden #greatchalfieldmanor #greatchalfieldmanorhouse #greatchalfieldmanorandgarden #wiltshire #bradfordonavon #melksham #artsandcraftgarden #publicgarden #garden #england #greatbritain #cottagegardenstyle #cottagegarden #romanticgarden #romantic #topiary #yew #yewtopiary #poldark #organicgardendreams #gardendesign #gardening #gardens #gardensofinstagram (at Great Chalfield Manor) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJBSlZAg7Mk/?igshid=8emmjmyadd0r

The romantic Arts and Crafts Garden at Great Chalfield Manor and Garden, located in Melksham, England, is truly worth a visit. I could stare at this garden scene for hours. The beautiful lush borders planted in a pleasant color scheme in the foreground with the tall green “houses”, pruned out of ancient yews, in the background is certainly not what you will find in an average garden. But nonetheless it is so inspiring, don’t you think? It really triggers your fantasy! #chalfield #chalfieldmanor #greatchalfieldmanor #greatchalfieldmanorandgarden #artsandcraftsgarden #romantic #beautiful #beautifulborders #borders #yew #yewhouse #inspiring #fantasy #nationaltrust #england #garden #gardens #publicgardens #gardendesign #organicgardendreams (at Great Chalfield Manor)

This little stoic chapel at 15th-century Great Chalfield Manor and Garden, England, with the dramatic gray skies match my mood perfectly this morning! Feeling a bit blue. Anyone else having a little bit of a hard time to get going this Monday morning? #chapel #oldchapel #greatchalfieldmanorhouseandgarden #chalfieldmanor #chalfield #chalfieldchapel #nationaltrust #moody #grayskies #15thcentury (at Great Chalfield Manor)
