We’ve been members of the National Trust for a number of years. A charity and institution that is, in my opinion, one of England’s greatest. Without it our heritage, culture and history would just disappear, so it is with such a strong passion that we always try and visit a number of NationaL Trust properties, no matter where we are in the country.

And breathe...
However another big problem we have is remembering the properties we’ve visited. So by writing a list I can at least keep track of our little journeys around the country and add to it the more we explore. But in the meantime, I can’t encourage you enough to explore your local National Trust…
