Godinton House, near Ashford is an absolute local gem, with six centuries of history since the original medieval Hall was built. Our Society members were treated to morning coffee in a bright and welcoming reception room. Excellent guides took us on a private tour of the House where we were much entertained by stories of the resident families and fascinated by the lovely items so much in abundance in every room. After lunch in the Restaurant, we were free to make our own explorations of the stunning garden, with the help of a detailed grounds map. This tranquil, pastoral estate with formal beds close to the House, was created by the great Edwardian architect Reginald Blomfield. What a glorious day we had! The sun shone on us, flowers bloomed and scented the air, the range of colours in the delphinium collection especially was incredible. 

Such well-organised and successful days do not happen by accident: thank you to our superb Excursions Officer Kathy.
