Today it felt like summer had finally arrived in the UK. It’s no joke that we’ve had constant rain, overcast skies, and dismally dreary days so far this year. Luckily we woke to blue skies today, which was just as well as we had been planning on joining a guided walk to the sound mirrors at Denge, Kent.
After the walk we pottered around Dungeness, looking at the miniature railway, cottages made from old railway carriages and lighthouses.
I was really pleased to finally visit Derek Jarman’s cottage, Prospect Cottage.
The garden really is amazing. Beautiful flowers spring up between the shingle and wood, metal and stones have been used to form sculptures amongst the plants in the beach garden.
