 Great text and stunning photos December 12, 2005

I found information on plant varieties, garden design and historical facts fascinating. The entry on Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal was particularly poignant for me, as it is probably my favourite National Trust garden (of the ones I've visited), and Stephen Lacey's text added to my enjoyment and memories of a sunny summer's day visit. Despite being mid-winter, it made me want to jump in the car and drive up to North Yorks to revel in the splendour of this garden. This is a book to dip-in and out of before and after visiting National Trust properties. I'm keen for spring and summer to come round again to see these gardens at their best. To be honest, I may even brave the cold winter weather and go and see the winter face of some of my more local NT gardens. The photography is undoubtedly stunning, and does these gardens full justice. More photography and books of this type please, National Trust.
 Looks great, not such great text December 19, 2006

A very attractive coffe table book, full of high quality images. However, in terms of garden design and maintenance it is a little bit specialist for my taste. Overall, this is one for the garden historian rather than the gardener. Btw - a previous review questions why gardens belonging to the National Trust for Scotland (NTS) aren't included in the book. I suspect it's because NTS is an entirely seperate organisation from the National Trust for England, Wales and Northern Ireland, rather than the author not rating gardens north of the border.
