We'd love to hear about the great places you've discovered over your summer holidays, whether it's somewhere local or on a trip away.

Any activities or places to eat and drink you can recommend in the area would also be much appreciated.

Open to offers for the entire plant or for fresh cuttings. I also have two sections drying that would be ready to be planted mid January.
Cuttings can be posted at buyers cost.
