A garden of about a third of an acre, with extensive densely planted herbaceous borders designed to provide continuous colour throughout the year. The beds contain many unusual and interesting plants as well as the more traditional cottage varieties.
Some of the borders are elevated from the house resulting in steep banks which provide a different and interesting aspect, but make this garden unsuitable for people with mobility issues.
Some of the trees and shrubs of note are Acers, Catalpa aurea, Cercis ‘Forest Pansy’ and a large unusual Sinocalycanthus. Various climbers are grown through these to prolong the season of interest.
Nestled above a pergola containing climbing roses is an aviary which houses a breeding pair of Amazon parrots.
home-made teas are available.
