Happy Feet Garden Tours -
Norfolk 16th - 20th June 2019
A garden tour of Norfolk in 2019 will be the
eighth trip for Happy Feet travellers!
Leaving early on Sunday morning 16th June, to reach our hotel in Norwich by late afternoon, with a garden to visit en route! I anticipate we will visit seven gardens/nurseries over those four days, including the Royal Sandringham Estate, and also a couple of gardens under the National Garden Scheme, with the addition of an optional guided tour of Norwich with lunch (or a little free time to ‘do your own thing’!) The cost of this trip will include the following: entry to all those venues, all coach travel, with pick up points along the A39 from Minehead to Bridgwater; four nights’ accommodation three course evening meal and breakfast, the use of leisure amenities at the hotel, all gratuities (hotel/driver etc.,) and where applicable, guided tours, lunch / refreshments. The group is run on a ‘you get what you pay for’ policy, there are no hidden extras, it is all purely self-financing. Finally, you don’t necessarily have to be a gardener! I like to think these trips of ours are arranged as a ‘community’ project, where people who may be on their own can make new friends, or for those of course, who would like to bring along a fellow companion. We are a friendly crowd, there is always plenty of laughter, good conversation and in fact on a lot of occasions, the ‘horticultural’ side of things take second place! f anyone is interested, please do get in touch with me as soon as possible and I can give you all the details of costs (which is due in full by the end of March). A deposit of £50 will hold your reservation. All newcomers and past travellers will be made very welcome. Mo (Plomgren) Holford Tel: 01278 741152 or email: plomdove4145@googlemail.com
