Top 10: Gardens

To me, gardens are works of art, on par with the Mona Lisa or the pyramids. Generations of owners and gardeners have conspired to shape their little piece of the world and turn it into paradise. Imagine all the dedication and love that has been poured into these gardens, year upon year, century upon century. How can anyone not be moved by so much beauty and so much love? Here are the ten favourite gardens I have visited.

10: Aranjuez, Spain

9: Bodnant, Wales


8: Villa d'Este, Italy
 
7: Fountains Abbey, England
6: Dessau-Wörlitz, Germany
5: Sissinghurst, England


4: Villandry, France


3: Versailles, France


2: Snowshill, England


1: Great Dixter, England
