Gardened out?

You could well be gardened out before too long but here goes.......

This was another interesting one. A private garden, but one which regularly opens under the auspices of the NGS.

From early beginnings in 1990 the owners have built, not only a super garden, acquired more land, extended their home but cleverly built all the structures in the garden themselves. 

Definitely has the wow factor !



It's not just the structures that have impact but the planting has too.


Romantic views from one room to the next encourage exploration. But how cool is this view?


Three lots of water features, a mammoth pergola, summer house, artisan's retreat............the list is endless. 

Just maintaining the garden looks like a full time job and a real labour of love.

Look at the floorscape under the pergola.




And the still pool with Roman portico




The list is long................ and goes on.

And so I hope does the garden.
