A Visit to Howick Hall Gardens

Wednesday was a non walking day as we were all booked on a trip to The Farne Islands in the afternoon so it was a case of doing your own thing. Gaye and I headed for Howick Hall Gardens just about 4 miles from Embleton and we had a most enjoyable visit. The gardens are quite extensive and will be well worth another visit sometime in the future as we only saw about half of what there was to see. It was a bit misty at the start but soon warmed up. 
We did enjoy the many little places to stop for a seat and admire the flowers. 
These are a particular favourite of mine

The tea room behind Gaye was lovely and our morning visit enabled us to have proper tea with loose tea in the pot and some superb cakes on offer.


We were back in Embleton by 12.30pm and ready for my next adventure to the Farne Islands
