The House of Fairy Tales created installation, The Clockwork Garden, running at Quarry Bank Mill until September 11, is absolutely sensational – and guaranteed to amuse and entertain everyone – from the very young to the very old.

A day at Quarry Bank proved to be one of the most fascinating days out in years for one family – comprising a one year-old, a two year-old, a young mother and grandpa.

The Clockwork Garden held everyone – even the youngest spellbound for over an hour – followed by a tour of the mill and the gardens – sublime at this time of year – kept everyone enthralled and capped-off a great day out.

Special mention and praise for the enthusiastic and very helpful staff, particularly one lady in the cafe who ‘broke the rules’ by providing a toasted tea-cake out of hours for the very hungry, youngest member of our party.

Don’t miss this truly magic exhibition or the equally magical show of azaleas and rhododendrons in the mill gardens – go mid-week you’ll miss the crowds.
