Winster Secret Gardens 2013

Winster Secret Gardens 2013

A modern Winster tradition is Secret Gardens Weekend. Since at least 2006, probably earlier, various Winster gardens have been open to visitors during a Summer weekend.

This Weekend is a firm favourite for visitors so do try and visit.

I try and get back to Winster sometime during this weekend both to enjoy the gardens and, hopefully, to bump into my Winster friends.
