Explore some stunning gardens... including this one.

If you’re looking for something different to do over the weekend, and fancy an event that’s gentle, genteel and quintessentially British, you could do much worse than visit Hints open gardens and Flower festival, at the pretty little village of Hints, on the old A5 near Tamworth. Find out about it here.

This year’s event will be on Sunday 29th and Monday 30th May 2011.

Entrance £3.50,  children free,  parking free.

Open from 11am – 6pm both days.

Delicious refreshments served all day in the village hall.

Gardens are open to view throughout the village

Flower Festival held in the village church; the theme this year is ‘Strictly Come Dancing’

The weather forecast doesn’t look too bad, so why not pop along? You might even bump into Brownhills Bob…

Enjoy the peace and splendour of a very English preoccupation...
