It is one of the best-known and most influential Arts and Crafts gardens in Britain, with its linked “rooms” of hedges, rare trees, shrubs and herbaceous borders. Created by Lawrence Johnston, it is owned by the National Trust and is open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our drive back from Hidcote Bartrim took us through the village of Edgehill and we just had to stop at the Castle Inn for a quick pint. Truly lives up to it’s name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the evening we headed into Cropredy which is a village in Oxfordshire through which the Oxford Canal navigates. Cropredy is apparently famous for it’s annual festival “The Cropredy Festival”, which certainly isn’t annual this year! A group called Fairport Convention use it as a re-union type concert – think some of the band live in this part of the world. If you are under 60 then you probably haven’t heard of the town or the band!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ate at the Brasenose Arms and then took a stroll along the Oxford Canal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
