A garden for gentle enjoyment where planting bursts forth all year round
Planting is key in this rural garden along with space to have guests enjoying alfresco dining. With subtle screening different ‘rooms’ have been designed to make the garden feel more restful and intimate. A large area near to the house with paving and an outdoor kitchen lends itself to entertaining, whilst the kitchen garden and adjacent wildflower grass areas provide habitats and food for humans and wildlife alike. Further down the garden is an area which occasionally floods and has been left to lawn with a graceful weeping willow adding to the height both inside and outside this fantastic outdoor space.
High summer sees colour all round this area for dining and relaxation. With an outdoor kitchen to one side it invites our clients outside all the time.
