David’s tour highlights…
“For me Hunte’s Garden is horticultural heaven! Superbly planted with a rich variety of tropical plants, it’s hard to think of a more colourful and exotic garden. And of course there’ll be plenty of time to sit in the sun, listening to the sound of the ocean and sipping a rum punch on the beach.”
