Happy memories of previous visit, hope to return soon. I treasure the image of recent rain water in the incised lettering of the recumbent stones.

This garden is magical, a work of art, a haven. It’s probably my favourite garden anywhere and it makes me happy just to be here, enjoying the surprise of hidden artworks around every corner and revelling in Ian Hamilton Finlay’s genius and playfulness. It’s such a beautiful corner of the world and well worth supporting. Go if you can.
