Milling around Gardens and Heritage Havens

Hampshire is known for its unique rural beauty, but it is also well-known for its watercress, accounting for the majority of the country's production.

Salads' leafy greens pale in comparison to the stunning gardens of RHS Wisley and Savill Garden, which boast riots of colors, shapes, and fragrances from a variety of native and unusual species that bloom all year. 

From elegant and exotic foliage to elegant and exotic finery, take a guided tour of the oldest silk mill that is still in operation today, employing traditional methods and machinery from its heyday. 

Swap the water-powered mill for a river cruise along the Thames, complete with cream tea.
