Thank you for taking us along on this beautiful garden tour. The sights, the sounds, the "smells" were absolutely wonderful. It was a welcome retreat as we in Southeast Texas, USA, recover from Hurricane Beryl.

[@MemorySeekers]

Hope the effects of the hurricane did not affect you too much!

[@marshabrubaker185]

@@MemorySeekers We were lucky that our apartment building stood up to the severe thunderstorms, torrential rains, 46 mph sustained winds with 90 mph wind gusts, 5 to 7 inches of rain, widespread flooding & power outages. There are still some people without power or homes or cars due to the damage of Beryl.

[@marshabrubaker185]

@@MemorySeekers Thanks! I too am glad the hurricane is behind us. We have been having some summer showers, which is making everything so green & blooming. Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@TXMEDRGR]

The garden is magnificent. My favorite part is the juxtaposition of beautiful plants against manmade structures and sculptures. It makes a beautiful contrast. Thanks.

[@2935441]

I loved the running water and the children's voices. We are in our second heat wave. So, I think you can understand I appreciate the cooling sound. These gardens are a real treat.

[@MemorySeekers]

Funny how the sound of running water confuses the brain and make you feel cooler.

[@DSkipp-le3gj]

The gardens were beautiful and I appreciated the restrained narration. It was the perfect way to do a video of a tranquil setting. I especially enjoyed the lovely Italian garden with the pelican statues and the trickling water going down the steps.

[@MemorySeekers]

What a feast for the eyes and ears! Your videos are so relaxing and calming. We live in the Houston, Texas area and have experienced the violent forces of nature this week with Hurricane Beryl. It was so nice to see the peaceful splendor of nature in this video. 💙

[@MemorySeekers]

Hope the hurricane did not cause too much damage and it’s now quieter in Texas! So pleased you enjoyed watching.

What a wonderful escape. I have to admit what amazed me the most is how long the effect of such a place can stay alive in us (me).and just the visions and images and smells recalled can rescue us from so much of the world's empty places and scarring episodes.

Gents, that was absolutely brilliant. So very, very lovely. I enjoyed the "natural sound", too. Knowing when to allow nature to take control of the microphone shows such intelligent discernment as a videographer, and is such a great idea- not many YT content creators "get that!" Another truly fabulous video, friends❤❤❤ much love and appreciation from Missouri, USA🇬🇧❤️

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you for such a lovely kind comment. Really please you enjoyed watching and appreciated the natural sounds and less narration on this one. The pictures said it all without words.

[@AbidAlhaleemhafiz]

Beautiful ❤🤩👍

[@BrancyCDA]

What a lovely and charming stroll you took us on, so enjoyed it as I had my afternoon tea! It's near impossible to pick a favorite, but I especially loved the old greenhouse that nature had taken over a bit, as I am quite fond of ruins and nature being entwined. Thank you so much for taking us along!

[@MemorySeekers]

We loved the Italian garden but the greenhouses were lovely and as you we enjoyed how nature has taken a hold.

[@elizabethmcpherson-lt9vh]

Thank you so much for visiting my favourite garden. So much in bloom this time of year. My daughter was saying the other day we havent visited for a few years and we are very local so no more excuses. We used to be season ticket holders when she was little. I had forgotten how beautiful it is there. Quite a few new sculptures I notice. My favourite place has to be the Italian garden. Stunning and restful. We love the viaduct too and park at Ardingly Reservoir - its three fields away from it.

[@MemorySeekers]

Hope this inspires you to pop back, it certainly is lovely and in full bloom at the moment.

[@maureentaphouse5206]

A stunning video and your approach with a few subtitles and commentary at only selected points meant we really could feel we were there enjoying the bird song and lush planting. Hard to pick a favourite garden but having visited pre lockdown I still have to pick the sudden arrival at the Italian garden with its waterlilies in that spectacular elevated position. The cafe area is a beautiful spot to linger too as those building weren't there on my visit . it was just a cake and drink spot served from a small building if my memory is correct. What superb promotion for a stunning garden. Thank you.

[@MemorySeekers]

That was a fab walk and the birdsong was Amazing!😊

[@SpanishEclectic]

The viaduct is quite a feast for the eyes, even if you are not an engineer, lol. The roses in this garden are fantastic; you are speaking my language, though I love all of your presentations. Lucky for me my cousins live in West Sussex. Maybe I'll make it across the pond next year. In the mean time, I'm enjoying this while my own roses are taking a break after flowering last month. Hot here, though not as crazy as the rest of California. I should be able to do some gardening after 6pm. I need to catch up on your garden videos. Cheers!

[@MemorySeekers]

Quite incredible how they managed to built that viaduct. We had no idea it even existed until the morning of our visit and looking at local things to see near the gardens. Equally had never heard of the gardens. It was just on the list of places we could visit with our historic houses cards and so glad we found it. You think you know your own country but there are so many places yet to be discovered. Good luck with the gardening!

Also try the Geoff Hamilton garden near Oakham.

Beautiful garden , thank you for taking us along with you. Even the bit with the café made me feel like being there , taking a break from strolling through the gardens 😄. If there's one thing I would wish from you for future videos ( apart from please continue) is to exchange zooming or swaying around shots by freeze-and-let-nature-do-the-moving shots. But still, totally enjoyable. Subscribed!
