| In his introduction on BBC Gardeners' World in 2016, Monty Don said "We've been across Britain looking at inspiring planting and design and this week we're at Driftwood in East Sussex, a small garden by the sea that's full of character." In 2024 he said "When it comes to growing conditions, I don't think you will find any garden in the land that is more different to Longmeadow than that belonging to Geoff Stonebanks." |
