A really lovely vlog, your dinner party food and floral arrangements looked super. So enjoyable to accompany you on your gardens tour too. Thank you. Xx

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you so much 😊

[@gardenroom65]

So nice to be seeing progress. You could do an open day, I’m sure people would visit. You are a nnique couple. 🎉😊

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Maybe we will one day ☺️

[@sallywest5634]

That's lovely how lucky are you to have a hubby who can do so many different things he looks just as at home cooking as building and that menu sounded so good. Love the white wisteria however they can upset the footings if too near the house I have a purple one growing round an arch over the front gate. Thanks for sharing xx I am still catching up but enjoying following your journey xx

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

He's very versatile 😊

[@gardenroom65]

Yummy! Food and potential kitchen is fab🎉

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

So good!

[@Suze2233]

Thank you again for taking us along! Simply beautiful.❤️

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

It was our pleasure 😊

[@tinkerbell9399]

What a lovely weekend! The garden was beautiful ❤️ We’ve grown Angelica for the first time, and it’s currently around 8ft tall! Covered in huge flower umbrels which the insects are loving! Wisteria is lovely but a bit of a thug, so might be worth checking out the different types. Roses up your cottage would be perfect! Thanks for sharing your time with us, really enjoyed it ❤️🇬🇧

[@violet_peapod21]

What a lovely video ☺️💐🌸 The house and garden are looking wonderful and the menu sounds totally delicious! I love your informal flower arrangements too, just perfect for the house 🤗💕🥰💐🌸☀️

[@cathyhogue9180]

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

AHH thank you. We all get stuck in 😊

[@hayleyrichardson3343]

I’m gluten free so I’m glad I’m not coming for tea xx

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Well, you'd be missing out on a treat because I am both gluten and dairy free so the only thing, I couldn't eat was the stuffed apricots. Everything else we cooked was gluten and dairy free, with lots of options for vegans and vegetarians too 🙂

[@FaithChapman-ylwiris62]

You have inspired me to utilize cowparsley in my arrangements!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Yes 🙌🏻. Be warned though, it does shed a lot but I believe it's worth it.

[@Aaliyah-y2e]

Nice~your garden is looking great. Thanks for sharing the video.

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you too. We really enjoyed creating this one 😊

[@PaulaShoaf]

Hello from Indiana! You are spoiled by Mark cooking .. my hubby can make toast ! your flowers for the table arrangements were so pretty ! I enjoyed the gardens and churches walk, lovely area! I truly hope to visit England again! What month is your favorite? Have a joyful week Paula

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

I certainly know which side my bread is buttered 😊 We've got it sussed now - I get the house, guest ready and Mark preps the dinner. Hmm, my favourite month, that's a tricky one. Each month has something wonderful about it. I think September might be near the top of the list, along with June.

[@joanwilder.]

You have such beautiful chemistry together. Its so nice to watch 🌸

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you!! 😊 We're pleased you enjoyed it.

[@ojluna]

I need to become your friend to enjoy such delicious foods. ❤. Sounds like a Funtime for all!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

It was a splendid meal. We'd forgotten how much we enjoy cooking for friends

[@Lili39129]

I WANT TO COME FOR DINNER!!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

You would have loved it. The food was delicious 😋

[@deirdrecerasa3932]

What a lovely post! Mark’s menu seemed delicious and the trip to that garden was amazing! Thank you for taking us along. ❤😊

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

You are most welcome. We really enjoyed filming this one.

[@felicityjacobs9608]

I would have looooved to see your table setting. Mark must be a, secret chef. That menu is on another level. Would have loved to see the final food table and a bit of the social interaction of your dinner evening(not too much just a peep.) Loved the visit to the gardens. I love your country side. I must say that your garden looks good in one of your previous vlogs. Your daughter is the duplicate of her father, gorgeous. Felicity Jacobs, Cape Town, South Africa

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

I know Felicity! I am so sorry. That was the intention. I'm not sure what happened. Everyone arrived and I completely forgot to pick up my phone. Total faux pas on my part 😳 It was going so well up until that point 😊

[@RainPoint]

Thanks for sharing the video. It's so cool. Can't wait to see how your garden thrives with this new addition! 🌿

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Me too!

[@gillyjaynes8558]

What a delicious menu - yum, and a very pretty home as well.

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

The menu worked out so well 😊

[@helenbailey8419]

A dreamy menu.Mark it sounds wonderful and Rowan making dessert.So nice to see where you walked with Maple.The tree tunnel gorgeous.The flowers,Louisa so lovely you could pick from your garden.Beautiful displays you've made.

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thanks Helen. It was a packed weekend of things to share.

[@helenbailey8419]

What a paradise the garden you filmed was.And a beautiful day weather wise.

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Yes, the Bishop's House Gardens were amazing and we were so fortunate with the weather ☀️

[@melindaferreira9879]

Beautiful garden! WOW! I appreciate the field trip💯👍🏼😄!!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thanks for visiting 😊

[@lauraboyes6345]

Hi - lovely linen tablecloth - do you have a method of removing red-wine stains from linen? Any pointers appreciated.😊

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

If it won't come out in a normal wash I use white wine vinegar & laundry detergent, rub both on the stain at the same time. I also find line drying on a very hot & sunny day works wonders ☺️

[@angelarowson6328]

Those ferns with the brown trunks are called tree ferns 🌴… native to New Zealand 🇳🇿 💚🤎💚… love that mown strip through the grass … that’s a real thing at the moment … enviro and bee 🐝 friendly .. 💚🐝💚.. I presume those church buildings are the Bishop house buildings …. 🤔

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

We loved those ferns. It reminds us of holidaying in Cornwall.

[@atfundramccoy8999]

I am keeping this video 😁.....

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Oh wow, you enjoyed it that much? 😊

[@atfundramccoy8999]

Oh yes l love the recipes and your harmony with your honey 👍

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you 😊

[@michellegarvey1]

Guys,have you seen Flowhives. Im thinking of getting some here in NZ. They are an Aussie product and David Beckham has some. They are reasonably priced as well

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

We have not, but we have now. Thank you, we will look into them 😊

[@cathyhogue9180]

I think that plant is called oak hydrangea,but i never seen one so big!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thanks Cathy. I haven't heard of an oak hydrangea before. I will look that up.

[@SW-cu6bw]

Was it a pub for every day of the year in Norwich by any chance? Certainly not the case nowadays as so many have closed or been converted into something else. Such a shame you did not get an image of the laid dinner table. I am sure that would have looked so beautiful. I love picking Cow Parsley down the lanes where I live but the white flowers do tend to go everywhere. The trip into Norwich was a lovely way to spend an afternoon wandering around those gardens. What a place! Sophie

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

I think you are right about the pubs in Norwich. I am so sorry I didn't video the table. Everyone arrived and I totally forgot what I was doing 🤣 That is so true about cow parsley flowers. The hoover had to work overtime.
