Villa Voros

Villa Voros Villa Voros is on Corfu. Villa Voros has now been sold - and we will be leaving our beloved garden in March 2018.

We hope to start building a new garden in Wales - perhaps we will be able to share our progress there - we will let you know.

I am sorry for the long silence from Villa Voros. Sometimes life events just overtake us. Anyway we have now left Villa Voros and are waiting to move into our new home in West Wales. At that time we hope to start a new page which will show our efforts to create a new garden in a very different climate.
