The Morville Hours: champagne and strawberries!

Some forty of us descended upon the Dower House Garden on Sunday June 22nd to enjoy glasses of pink champagne and bowls of luscious strawberries, locally picked by Katherine and Sandy, served with lashings of clotted cream. What a feast! Add to that the beauty of the garden on an afternoon when the rain just held off, and we've got a pretty special event.

After a browse of the garden, Katherine led us into her library and talked to us about the writing of the book and the making of the garden. Lots of interesting questions followed, which Katherine answered with grace, humour and frankness: we were charmed!

The book signing afterwards looked something like a mini-Hay!
