We discovered Kent & Stowe Tools while we were in England last summer at an incredible garden store. I'm promising myself that I will take care of them : ) Kent & Stowe, a brand based in the United Kingdom, bases the design of their garden tools on drawings from the 1800's. They are not only pretty and utilitarian, but also offer a good "heft" in your hands.

Kent... the garden of England. Home to orchards of apples, vales of vineyards and houses of hops, all of which feature in my illustration of this beautiful English county that reaches out to France. Lighthouses line the coast, shining their light out over the English Channel on which ferries bob along making their way to Europe as does the Eurostar that I've drawn into my colourful illustration of Kent. Amazing, ancient architecture of cathedrals (Canterbury and Rochester) and castles (Leeds, Dover and Tonbridge) and houses with grand gardens( Knole and Sissinghurst). The iconic bridge at Dartford and pretty Pantiles at Royal Tunbridge Wells are included in my illustration of Kent, as is the vast, looming structure of the nuclear power station at Dungeness. Spot the little house of the late Derek Jarman on the stony beach next to the power station. I remember visiting this area and being mesmerised by his garden, built out of a ground of pebbles. Nearby, sheep graze on the salty marshland at Romney over which a steam train makes its way across the flat, reclaimed land, making Kent even bigger, better and more beautiful. Time for me to return to this green and pleasant corner of England I think and see all this beautiful architecture and cultural heritage again.

Sissinghurst Castle Garden in Kent, home to Vita Sackville-West and her husband Harold Nicholson.
Lovely pair of Antique English Staddle Stones, carved limestone covered with moss and lichen, good proportions. Hard to find matching pair. Imported from Kent England.
I love Deal because it is a quiet seaside town not far from from Canterbury and Dover. It is small enough that you can get involved in the local community and in the Summer it's buzzing with visitors.

Last summer the Prada clan decided flights and hauling car seats and extra luggage around to get somewhere further afield was more than we could bear. So bang on trend we booked a staycation.
On my last trip to the Cotswolds, I chose to include Rousham House in Oxfordshire. While it doesn’t receive the kind of attention that Hidcote, Sissinghurst and Great Dixter do,…
