House at Pooh Corner




The little play house was built over 20 years ago for our daughter Suzie. Now it has had a Winnie the Pooh makeover so that children who visit the garden on our Open Days can enjoy playing in it. Maybe they will bring their own favourite teddy and have a teddy bears picnic; complete with honey sandwiches.

Phil Remblance and his son Carl from Kempston have masterminded the transformation. You should see inside. Balloons are painted on the ceiling, floating amongst the clouds and bees. Its such fun! Poppy was our first little visitor.

Frost Fair



Cold frosty nights are perfect for frost fair picnics; when lily pods and chinese lanterns become candlebras for all the little creatures to enjoy the spread of crinkly leaves and seeds and cones.
