End of Days

The Post-Apocalypse village. Buried in woodlands in deepest Buckinghamshire, a place that draws warboys, tankgirls, wasteland warriors and armageddonists. And provides a shelter from the zombies.

The Secret Garden

The Secret Garden, hidden in the shadow of a 12th century Abbey in the town of Malmesbury - Englands oldest borough. At dusk, beautiful nymphs appear in the fading golden light and there's a magical frisson in the atmosphere. A wonderful place to be...
