The Yellow Book! The national garden scheme release this book each year, full of people who open their gardens for charity, now over 3,700 gardens open up to the public either by appointment or on a set day of the year.
The book is broken down into regions & is really simple to use. My favourite last year in our local area was 'Cotherstone' as it is a group opening, pretty much the whole village opens its gardens & allotments to the public, a couple of gardens serve tea with fruit cake & Cotherstone cheese (spent a lot of the day there) & some sold plants & flowers. Only £4 entry for the day, & if the sun is shining it couldn't be a better day out.
You can grab the book from most supermarkets & book shops or from amazon for £6.99 inc postage.
Happy reading!
