“The original owner of Hare Hill’s woodland gardens was a great rhododendron enthusiast. Colonel Charles Brocklehurst commissioned James Russell - the great plantsman of the 20th century who designed Hampton Court gardens - to oversee his own landscaping work. At its most spectacular in early summer, Hare Hill bursts into bloom with a wide range of azaleas, rhododendrons, hollies, and hostas and, right at its heart, there is a delightful walled garden with a metal pergola designed by Philip Jebb. The renowned holly collection contains over 50 different varieties, including silver and golden leaved, yellow and orange berried varieties, and the rare Highclere holly. The surrounding parkland is the perfect spot for a summer picnic, and the Hare Hill property offers a number of walking paths, including one to the nearby National Trust property Alderley Edge, located three kilometres away. ”

“Brilliant information, have used several of the pubs and visited many of the properties. Some that
I didn’t
know were so close to home. Keep up the good work.”
Steve, UK
“Thanks very much for your help. Gone out and got a 1Gb card and all is now loaded. One way of rating a company is the back up support and you score 10/10 .”
Graham, London
“The content is good and the level of detail about right, enough to pique your interest but not so much
that you feel you're attending a lecture.”
Sam, Manchester
“I've used the programme a few times now on my travels and it does add a good deal of value
to a journey so I'm very happy with my purchase.”
John, UK
“The Audio commentary on the Garmin was well narrated and definitely had the feel of the audio
guides you get when you are walking around the landmarks themselves”.
Linda, New Jersey
“Finding atmospheric pubs with good food is always a challenge when you don't know the area and
can be stressful when you're hungry and tired!!”
David, Essex
“Road Tour has found us some great pubs which have made our journeys all the more enjoyable. Every place
it's suggested has been a winner.”
Nikki, Cambridgeshire'
“The heritage commentary is really informative and entertaining – it’s great to discover
the background to the brown tourist signs we normally whizz by on the motorway.”
Michael, Reading

are not stopping at the attraction.”
