A world of curiosities awaits...
Last weekend I found myself jumping on a train out of London to visit the Bosham Garden Art Trail. Once a year the residents of North street open up their gardens to the public and show a fantastic selection of high end garden sculptures, metal work and beautiful objects to transform your garden.
The first garden I entered was home to The Bikers Pub, a quirky pub that's proud to be a finalist in the Pub Shed of the year 2015 competition. The pub is run by a lovely couple that made me feel that living an eccentric lifestyle would be so much fun. They had a family of tarantulas living in their kitchen, walls covered with paraphernalia they had collected over the years, and a fantastic pub with homemade beers in their garden, wow! To vote for them in the Pub Shed of the Year Competition, visit www.readersheds.co.uk.
