No one comes close to Geoff Hamilton, when it comes to presenting Gardener's World.

When my children were growing up, they knew that as soon as the theme tune started, I was not to be disturbed, it was the highlight of my TV viewing week.

I especially loved the Cottage Garden series, so when I recently visited Barnsdale in Rutland, Leicestershire, home of the late Geoff Hamilton, the garden I wanted to see most of all was the Artisan Garden. I was not at all disappointed, in fact I had such mixed emotions, sadness at the passing of Geoff but absolutely joy and gratitude, that he had created such a wonderful space and that it was still there for us to see today.

Just beautiful.
