Travelling on your own is always popular just to get away for a break or because of restricted holiday dates. Hotels we know well are welcoming and good bases for garden visits. We create a relaxed interesting itinerary and include private transfers from the airport or train station. The prices are for the ground arrangements; the flight or train travel is in addition. Please contact us for further details.
