Pictures - Polesden Lacey




We are lucky members of the National Trust and have been now for many years; for which we are grateful. It gets us out of the house and provides beautiful walks, historical education and some amazing breath-taking views that kind ancestors of this country have passed onto the public.
I can highly recommend this as maybe a gift for a loved one or a gift to yourself and family. It is worth it; the only further cost then is tea and cakes; which I have to say are my downfall... You have to treat yourself though don't you; otherwise life is not worth living.You can read more about membership here

Lambing season at the Polesden Lacey fields



I thought I'd share these photos. On Sunday, there was a vintage Bentley car collection on view down by the house. Unexpected and a nice surprise for many. The cars were decked out and sparkling. Picnic baskets as per vintage times; left on the back seats added a special feel to the display - especially as it was set outside the front door of Mrs Greville's front door.


I can just imagine sports cars pulling up for parties and picnics ; I would have loved to be living like that in those days.

Many people were having picnics on the large lawn in front of the house; children running down the hills with delight. Very British or English scene; I prefer to say. There is more information about Polesden Lacey on the National Trust website here .
