Arriving at Manor Gardens I was met by owners, Barney and Clarey with their three young children. They are so friendly and warm and instantly made me feel like we were old friends. Their gardens are such a haven away from the hussle and bustle of life. I did wonder if they'd notice if I just moved in.
We collected our scissors and headed toward the sweetpea garden, the smell was heavenly and the colours stunning.
Madeline adored choosing her own colour scheme and hunting for the perfect stems to complete her bunch.
There were lots of other beautiful flowers to choose from including Delilah and sunflowers. Clarey was so welcoming and we had a few lovely chats about her venture here in the North East. It's one of a kind and a beautiful, relaxing way to spend a summer morning.
Apart from the pick your own flower days, Manor Gardens provide flowers for all occasions including weddings, special events and venue decor. They can personalise a display or bouquet for you or take you round the flower gardens and help you pick and mam your own. I couldn't think of anything more thrilling as a bride than to choose your own fresh flowers for your wedding.
After all that picking we were ready for some refreshments, a beautiful selection of drinks and homemade cakes were available - the children even had a choice of popcorn in a cup or homemade cheese stars and hearts. Even the refreshments stand was beautiful!
Everything about Manor Gardens was stunning. It's an idea like no other here in the North East. Clarey and Barney have lots of ideas and plans so watch this space ................
You can follow Manor Gardens on Facebook, Twitter an Instagram to keep up to date with their plans.
Keep an eye out for their pick your own open days! It's one not to miss!
