Garden Stories
By Jeremy Francis
The Cloudehill Woods are now open
Back in 1990 and the Sunday after Melbourne Cup, the ‘Rangeview’ woodlands happened to be open to visitors as part of Victoria’s Open Garden Scheme, and with time to spare, Valerie and I thought we might pop along.
On Landscape - Fireflies
Last month Valerie and I visited my sister Jenny in the French farmhouse she restored back in the 1990s, in the mountains north of Nice. This ambitious retirement project on the part of my sister and late brother-in-law, Philip Clairs, is in the lovely village of Sigale.
Great Dixter
In early June this winter, Michel Harbke began the massive job of clearing up the Cloudehill ‘Woods’ and for those first couple of weeks I was popping down regularly checking on progress, trying to imagine what might be the end result.
Two Bloomsbury Gardens
For anyone visiting Great Dixter and with an interest in the Bloomsbury group (and dare I say I seem to have collected several bookshelves of their voluminous writings!) it is tempting to allow an hour or so of driving in the lovely Sussex countryside to also visit Charleston and Monk's House.
