Hello Been There Done That tour enthusiasts.

I'm starting to plan a trip to UK in September with a friend and would like to know if Bodnant Garden in Wales is worth the extra kilometers out of the way? Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks,

I have been to Bodnant twice. Both times in the Spring (Early & Late). I do not know exactly how it will be in the Fall but it is an exquisite Garden. Well worth a few extra miles. If you are going to be in Wales this and Powis Castle Garden are must sees. If you are not already a member of the RHS joining can easily pay for your visits to many gardens in the UK (Free admission).My son lives in Wales and I've been to a number of gardens there as well as some in Southern England. Feel free to email me directly with specific questions.

Buy the book "1001 Gardens You Must See before you Die." It is my garden travel bible!

http://www.amazon.com/1001-Gardens-You-Must-Before/dp/076416...

The book features gardens world-wide, and every one I have ever visited has been a home run! And yes, Bodnant Garden is in there, page 510!
