We've just booked our holiday for this year (YAY!!!  ) and will be staying in Calvados for two weeks. As well as partaking of the local produce (   ) it would be nice to try and visit a few gardens. Can anyone recommend any gardens worth a visit, or anything else for that matter? Thanks!  |

Sorry P I can't - we haven't been to Normandy  There's a garden listed HERE created by Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll  |

My parents went to Giverny several years ao and really loved it. Mum really enjoyed the house too. I haven't been obviously as I turn into a pumpkin if I cross the parish boundary!

PML 4P - you are so hard on yourself!!!
I think the general advice is to go to Giverny, but try and get there early to avoid too many crowds. It's certainly on my list of things I want to do! As M&D will be spending some of the holiday with us it might be a place to go to with mum, and leave the men to take LP to the beach or something.

Now there's a good idea! Then you can have a relaxed saunter round and TAKE LOTS OF PHOTOS for us to look at!
I am actually pumpkin shaped P! Cruel but fair....if I don't say, someone else will.
