Today Gina and I visited Hatfield House, Hertfordshire. We took the opportunity of a reasonably sunny day, to walk around both the west and east gardens, before viewing the world famous home itself. (This was where way back in 1558, Queen Elizabeth I was given the news that she had inherited the throne of England). After a spot of outdoor lunch at the restaurant, we also went for a 15 minute ride on a horse (called Josh) and carriage around part of the estate.
