Since I am an Islander I feel justified in writing about this.
Quarr Abbey gardens are worth a visit.
There is now an Estate Manager, who worked at Hilliers Nursery in Romsey.
Volunteers work in the gardens. There are beautiful borders, vegetable plots and a nautical themed bed.
A new café/ farm shop provides a place to enjoy the gardens.
The garden of the George Hotel in Yarmouth could be located in Italy ..
Dramatic pots that are full of colour make a super display.
Elsewhere on the Island individual gardens with displays of roses are also worth a mention.
Wherever you are during the Summer, take time to reflex on the beauty that is around you.
It will do you “world of good”.
