Snowdrops at Kingston Lacey in Dorset (National Trust)

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Kingston Lacey in Dorest is a National Trust property that is known for their beautiful snowdrop displays that take place from the end of January into early March, and my visit to see the snowdrops this year took place on the first weekend in February. The snowdrops cover the ground in the Victorian Fernery as well as in the gardens walk. We have had a very wet year this year, and I went to visit the snowdrops on a wet Sunday with my friends.

Before our visit, we went for Sunday roast at The Three Legged Cross pub. I had a Sunday roast meal and brownie for dessert. I had roast turkey.

We headed to Kingston Lacey in Dorset to see the snowdrops and have a quick walk.

Our fist stop was at the house where I saw the self portait of Rembrandt, which is doing the tour in a few National Trust estates this year.

The Egyptian rooms were also open, and I had a look inside them as well.

The rest of the time was spent walking around the wet gardens, and it had started to rain. The rain this year has been non-stop.
