So I've been wanting to visit Mottisfont Abbey for ages. Now that I have wheels and it's only about fifteen miles away one day during the week was going to be penciled in.
Imagine my surprise when 'The Sunday Times' announced a freebie offer of one free visit to a National trust property, for next weekend. I duly invested heavily, £2.00, in a copy and by doing so have saved £6.00 on the entrance fee and got enough newspaper to read for the rest of the week . Whoo-Hoo.....result.
If you're a stately home type person or even just a stately person, get to the newsagents pronto.

Very good ! And you know for sure you'll get thru the gates.
Three times....three flamin' times I've visited Mottisfont.....and every time it was shut! Still the village is gorgeous too....and the tea shop sells great cream teas, tho I bet your scones are better.
Enjoy.
