More Traveller Comments: Early Tours

Telegraph Welsh Borders

Please thank Helen & Sophie for leading a very friendly, noisy, happy bunch of folk. It all moulded so well....

The tour was excellent: well-planned with superb leader....

Good choice of gardens which exceeded our expectations. Essential element was hearing the owners talk......

Sophie, our tour leader, was excellent: extremely helpful & friendly. Helen Yemm was also very knowledgeable and great fun....

Can't praise you enough....

Helen Yemm was a first class leader - and good fun. Sophie did well and members seemed to gel.....

A really lovely hotel with great staff and excellent food. A perfect stay......

The surprise of The Laskett at the end was a perfect round-off to a wonderful 3 day break....

Very impressed by the variety of the gardens and the enthusiasm and welcome from the owners and gardeners which gave a very special feel to the visits.....

Each garden visited was special....

A lovely mix of gardens: something for everyone. Peter Clay's garden was the highlight.....

The long weekend format was ideal and we covered an enormous amount in the time allowed.....

We absolutely loved this tour; it was enhanced by Sophie & Helen. As an avid reader of Helen's column, I was glad to find her witty comments were as good as in the column!

Times Pembrokeshire

Just a short note to say how much I enjoyed the recent tour of Pembrokeshire gardens......

Thank you very much for organising an enjoyable tour......

This is a lovely part of Wales and it was a privilege to see so many private gardens there......

Stephen & Sophie are a fantastic duo: nothing is too much trouble and great fun into the bargain!

'Phantastique' hotel! Everything was so well cared for and the manager and staff kept a watching brief for all the guests......

All the owners/gardeners were so enthusiastic about their own 'patch'; I've come home with a distilled essence of the same!

Not too late to book on an Autumn Garden Tour......
