Our new house - well we can all dream!!!
In an English Country Garden.
Cliveden
Great house but even better ice cream!!!
A small section of the house!
"Daddy can our new house have a garden like this?"
Check out the back drop!!
One of the magnificient fountains.
On a little island in the 'Water Garden'
This tree is just the perfect size for me.
We are members of the National Trust and yesterday we visted Cliveden. The house itself was built in 1670 for the 2nd Duke of Buckingham. In 1893 the house was purchased by William Waldorf Astor who displayed many items of beautiful furniture and paintings there. The house is now currently a hotel (a very posh one at that) and you can only actually visit 3 of the rooms there, however the grounds and the surrounding woodland are beautiful. On days like this it makes you proud of your British heritage and you wonder at how such beautiful places were created with such lack of building machinery. Hope you enjoy the pics.
