This was the country home of the writer Virginia Woolf and her husband. Now run by the National Trust. It is only a small house but well worth seeing, and has a beautiful garden containing a "studio" where she would write. A wet and overcast day today unfortunately.

Very enjoyable, you've captured the atmosphere nicely Peter. Is that Virginia in picture No.3? She should put some clothes on she looks cold poor thing.

Haha, I think she was startled by the sudden influx of visitors and ran for cover !

I have never been to a small NT property like this one. Only open for a few hours twice a week, and about 15 people queuing up in the rain in the little lane outside waiting for the volunteers to arrive to open up. Delightful place though that I would recommend. Pick a sunnier day than we did though !
