Wander through woods carpeted with bluebells or unwind in an apple orchard, enveloped by the fragrance of blossoms and the buzz of honeybees. Participate in haymaking, or enjoy a picnic by a stream, dipping your toes into the refreshing, clear water on a warm summer day while savouring strawberries picked right from the garden.
